The globular, fully double blooms appear in a creamy apricot and exude their intense fragrance. It is probably this very fragrance that still earns this somewhat older English shrub rose such a large following.
Jude the Obscure grows compact and bushy, carries slightly glossy, green foliage, and is reliably hardy.
