Munstead Wood®
Rose Type: English Rose
Munstead Wood® produces exceptionally rich, deep velvety crimson blooms that gradually reveal lighter outer petals as they mature. The flowers begin as deeply cupped rosettes before opening into a shallower, more relaxed form that showcases their remarkable petal count of approximately 74 petals. Measuring around 3 to 3.75 inches across, these densely layered blooms bring classic English rose character and dramatic color to the garden.
Its powerful Old Rose fragrance is enhanced by distinctive fruity notes of blackberry, blueberry, and damson, creating a wonderfully complex perfume. This repeat-flowering shrub produces flushes of blooms from late spring through early winter on a healthy, bushy plant with a broad, slightly spreading habit. Young red-bronze foliage matures into attractive mid-green leaves, while excellent disease resistance and tolerance for coastal conditions, heat, and partial shade contribute to its dependable garden performance. The blooms also make excellent cut flowers for indoor arrangements.
