Rosa 'Abbie's Rose' is an upright but low-growing, bushy, floribunda shrub rose with thorny stems and ovate, glossy, dark green leaves. From late spring through to autumn it bears an abundance of lightly fragrant, double, cerise-pink flowers.

Rosa 'Abbie's Rose' is a great choice for growing at the front of a birder, in a pot, or being trained as a low-growing hedge. Add a mulch of well-rotted manure or compost once a year, and deadhead flowers to prolong blooming in summer.
