English Rose (Rosa 'Crown Princess Margareta')




English Rose
Rosa 'Crown Princess Margareta'

The color of this rose is superb. The way the petals are formed is very interesting. Of all the David Austin Roses I have seen I think I like this one the best. Named after the granddaughter of Queen Victoria, Crown Princess Margareta of Sweden, was an avid and accomplished gardener. Since it was late in the season the plant didn’t look the greatest but it was a bushy shrub type about 5 feet tall. The color really matches the season.
