Rosa 'Lady Emma Hamilton' is a tall-growing, English rose, bearing dark red buds that open to orange flowers with a fruity fragrance. Leaves are bronze-green, fading to dark green as they mature.

With an upright growth habit, Rosa 'Lady Emma Hamilton' is a good choice for growing at the back of a mixed herbaceous border, but it is also suited to more formal settings, such as a rose bed.

For best results, deadhead spent flowers and feed fortnightly with a potash-rich fertiliser.
