The compact shrub rose Darcey Bussell is a very rewarding garden rose as a continuously flowering, compact-growing shrub. It captivates with large, fully double blooms in dark carmine red that exude an excellent, fresh, fruity fragrance.
The rose variety Darcey Bussell is named after a well-known English ballet dancer. Not least because it is one of the healthiest red English roses, it was awarded the AGM in 2021. Its compact and bushy growth also makes it well suited to container cultivation.
