Princess Alexandra of Kent (Ausmerchant)

The Rosa ‘Princess Alexandra of Kent’ standard rose (90 cm) is a regal presence from the collection of David Austin. Its large, cup-shaped flowers with as many as 130 petals per flower are among the most impressive within the English range. The color transitions from a soft, light pink outer edge to a deeper, warm pink center — an enchanting contrast that gives this rose its unmistakable charm.

Besides its lush beauty, this standard rose offers a unique fragrance experience: a fresh tea scent that develops into notes of lemon and blackcurrant – elegant, fresh, and fruity at the same time.

Roses in a pot

A potted rose is a rose plant that has already been grown in a pot and is delivered with a well-developed root system. These roses are ready to be planted in the garden or in a larger pot, without having to wait for roots to develop. This makes the potted rose ideal for year-round planting, especially May to October.

Bare-root roses – also called root roses – are rose plants that are delivered without pots or soil. These roses are dormant and can be planted directly in the ground. The best time to plant a root rose is autumn or early spring, when the soil is still moist and the temperature is mild.
