Rosa ‘AUSdecorum’ PP18,717 Darcey Bussell
Darcey Bussell is a beautifully compact English Shrub Rose bred by David Austin® and introduced in 2008 as a tribute to the famed ballerina. Its rich crimson-pink blooms open with a ring of outer petals surrounding an inner cup, gradually forming a full, classic rosette. As the flowers mature, their color softens to a gentle mauve. With a light-to-medium fruity fragrance and repeat blooming throughout the season, Darcey Bussell brings refined charm to borders, beds, and containers.
