William Shakespeare is the most popular variety of one of the most famous breeders, David Austin, who conducted a bold experiment in crossing damask and bourbon roses with hybrid tea and floribunda roses, having received a new amazing variety - English roses.
Advantages of the variety: stable growth rate, abundance and continuity of flowering during the whole season, high resistance to adverse conditions, high immunity to diseases, and also the flowers repeat the bizarre shape of old roses and the inimitable unique aroma of each individual variety. William Shakespeare has a classic subtle aroma, which contains a note of violet.
A park rose with a powerful straight bush and dense foliage of a dark green shade, against the background of which large densely double raspberry-purple flowers "burn" (up to 12 cm in diameter). At the beginning of flowering, the bud is closer to a goblet shape, when fully opened, the flower acquires a flat, cup-shaped form.
The height of the bush is up to 120 cm, flowering is abundant and long (the whole season, with a period of a short rest in August and a second wave of flowering in September), on each stem usually form brushes of 3-5 buds. William Shakespeare is one of the most winter-hardy varieties.
It has a high resistance to common diseases and frost, but in a place protected from the wind.
