('Dr. Schiwago')Description. Raised by Walter Gregory of Nottingham… he had a real success with this one, rather surprisingly because it is not what we think of as a 'popular' colour. The buds are red and the open flowers pink, verging on the 'shocking' variety.

Wendy Cussons HT Raised by Gregory, Nottingham, England. Introduced 1960. Parentage Independence x Eden Rose. Rose red. Often described as the 'perfect English rose'. Very high centred, elegant blooms with damask perfume that show a distinct preference for cool weather. Grown at its most beautiful in the northern countries of England. A worthwile exhibition rose as well as a reliable bedding rose. Bushes are branching and on the tall side, disease-free leathery dark green foliage. Perhaps its best recommendation is a list of some of its awards: RNRS President's Trophy, First Certificate Rome Trials, Award of Merit RHS, Golden Rose of the Hague.
