David Austin Lichfield Angel® (Ausrelate) English Shrub Rose (6 litre pot)

Lichfield Angel® (Ausrelate) is a vigorous and nearly thornless shrub, which develops pale peachy pink buds that will open to form neatly cupped, cream rosettes. This rounded shrub is ideal for cutting, especially being less thorny than other rose varieties.

As a repeat flowering rose, it is likely to bloom in flushes from late spring through to early winter with each flush of flowers lasting for 3 to 4 weeks.

Plant Lichfield Angel into a mixed border, rose hedge or rose border in a position of full sun or partial shade. Use Mycorrhizal Fungi to help establish roots and encourage good plant health.

This English shrub rose bred by David Austin is named after an Anglo-Saxon painted sculpture discovered in Lichfield Cathedral.
