The Poets Wife English Rose
A 2016 introduction 'The Poet's Wife' is the rose hybridizer's first new yellow English Rose since 'Charles Darwin' in 2003. "Yellow roses with a fine flower, strong fragrance, repeat bloom, true garden strength and excellent disease-resistance are very difficult to breed, making them rare indeed," said Michael Marriott, Austin's technical director and senior rosarian. The new variety's yellow color is unusually rich and the fragrance is unusually strong and appealing. It blooms abundantly from early summer till frost. PP27364
