An elegant, midsummer-flowering damask rose, Rosa Madame Hardy is a medium-sized, vigorous, deciduous old shrub rose with an upright, open, bushy habit and rather lax stems. The divided, rather leathery leaves are matte mid-green. In midsummer, the shrub bears masses of very fragrant, white, ‘quartered’ double flowers crammed with petals and with a green button eye. The shrub may need some support for the lax stems. Rosa Madame Hardy holds the RHS Award of Garden Merit.
