English rose Rosa 'Sophy' bears rosette-shaped, pink-red flowers with a light tea fragrance, over a long season.

An upright, bushy shrub rose, Rosa 'Sophy' is ideal for growing in a mixed herbaceous border. It is also suitable for growing as a hedge.

For best results, deadhead spent flowers and feed fortnightly with a potash-rich fertiliser.
