A beautiful, repeat-flowering hybrid of the species rose Rosa pimpinellifolia or Scotch briar, Rosa Stanwell Perpetual is a small to medium-sized, deciduous shrub rose with a twiggy, spreading habit and arching, prickly branches. The delicate foliage is rather ferny-looking, and deep bluish-green. Aptly named, it flowers from midsummer right into December, with tousled, fully double, shell-pink flowers which fade to almost white, and seem to intensify in colour as the year proceeds. The blooms have a strong, slightly fruity, Old Rose fragrance. Rose Stanwell Perpetual holds the RHS Award of Garden Merit.
