Tess Of The d'Urbervilles
Large fragrant flowers of bright crimson colouring. They are of a nice, deeply cupped shape in the early stages; the petals turning back to give a less formal but still attractive flower. They bend over with their weight, to give an elegant effect. The growth is robust, bushy and spreading and the leaves large and dark green.
Named after the character from Thomas Hardy¹s novel.
May need some summer pruning if grown as a shrub.
