Rosa 'Durrell' is an upright, bushy, thorny, deciduous shrub with ovate, glossy, dark green leaves. It's perfect for growing in a mixed herbaceous border or on its own in a pot.
From late-spring into autumn, this repeat-flowering floribunda rose bears fragrant, semi-double red flowers with white and pink mottled stripes.
Mulch Rosa 'Durrell' with well-rotted manure or compost every year, and hard prune in February. In summer, deadhead regularly, and add a high potash feed every fortnight to prolong flowering.
