David Austin Port Sunlight® (Auslofty) is a vigorous upright shrub rose which produces medium-large, flat, quartered roses in rich apricot hues, that pale towards the edges. These beautiful blooms have a delightful medium tea fragrance that makes this rose perfect for cutting to admire its ruffled rosettes of roses around your home.
Its vigorous upright growth also makes it a wonderful addition to mixed borders or for growing as a fragrant rose hedge, to add structure to garden displays.
This English shrub rose was bred by David Austin and introduced in 2007. It is named after the well-known model village in the Wirral, where there is a beautiful garden of English Roses.
