Rosa 'Leah Tutu', named after Desmond Tutu's wife, is a repeat-flowering (floribunda) shrub rose with beautiful pale golden-yellow, multi-petalled flowers in contrast with bright green foliage.
It's suitable for growing in the herbaceous border in contrast with darker-flowered plants, or on its own in a container. In common with many roses, Rosa 'Leah Tutu' grows well in a variety of soil types but does better if mulched with well-rotted manure or compost. Hard prune in February and help prolong flowering by deadheading regularly in summer, as well as adding a high potash feed every fortnight.
