Port Sunlight (Auslofty) at a glance
The 'Port Sunlight' (Auslofty) is a David Austin rose that enchants your garden with its warm, radiant presence. Its large, rosette-shaped flowers, up to 9 cm wide, are richly filled with countless delicate petals displaying a beautiful apricot-peach color. As the flowers mature, the shades gently fade, creating a dynamic and lively play of colors. The young, bronze-red leaves and stems form a stunning contrast with the flowers and later turn a deep green. One of its most beloved features is the strong, pleasant Tea Rose fragrance that unmistakably drifts through the garden.
This versatile English rose blooms abundantly and reliably from early summer to late autumn, allowing you to enjoy its beauty for months. 'Port Sunlight' is especially suitable as a large shrub rose in borders, mixed beds, or as a solitary plant, where it forms an impressive focal point. Thanks to its vigorous growth, it can also be beautifully trained as a small climbing rose against a wall, fence, or obelisk, where its fragrant flowers can be admired at eye level. Moreover, the elegant flowers are excellent as cut roses, so you can enjoy their charm indoors as well.
