Rose Type: English Rose
Princess Alexandra of Kent™ produces remarkably large, deeply cupped blooms in a warm, glowing shade of bright pink. Each flower contains an extraordinary 130 petals, creating a lush, full appearance that is both refined and romantic. Despite their impressive size, the blooms are carried gracefully on a rounded, well-balanced shrub, never appearing heavy or overcrowded.
Its powerful Tea fragrance evolves beautifully as the bloom matures, beginning with fresh Tea notes before developing hints of lemon and eventually revealing subtle undertones of blackcurrant. Princess Alexandra of Kent™ flowers repeatedly throughout the growing season, producing an abundance of blooms suitable for cutting, containers, borders, and rose hedges. Strong disease resistance, dependable heat tolerance, coastal adaptability, and the ability to thrive in partial shade make this variety both beautiful and versatile in the garden.
