Rosa 'Silver Shadow' is a repeat-flowering hybrid tea rose, bearing elegant, fully-double, fragrant flowers in an unusual shade of silver-lilac.

For the biggest impact, grow Rosa 'Silver Shadow' in conjunction with purple-, blue- and white-flowered plants. It is also suitable for growing in large pots on the patio.

Mulch with well-rotted manure or garden compost each year, and deadhead blooms in summer to prolong flowering.
