Rosa ‘The Albrighton Rambler’ is a repeat-flowering rambling rose, bearing large sprays of small, cup-shaped soft-pink flowers with a central button eye and a light, musk perfume – typical of old roses. It’s a very healthy rose, showing good resistance to rose diseases, and the flowers are not spoiled by rain.
A less vigorous rambler than many, Rosa ‘The Albrighton Rambler’ is ideal for growing in smaller gardens, where it can be trained against a rose arch, pergola or arbour, or even allowed to grow through a small tree.
