More about Damask Roses:
Rosa damescena cultivars or ‘Damask Roses’ have two distinct sections: the Summer Damasks – such as Amelia – and the Autumn Damasks. The former flower only once and are large, thorny, quite open growing shrubs with intensely fragrant pink to white flowers. The latter, and their allies the Portland roses, are shorter, more compact shrubs with the ability to repeat flower in the autumn. Their colour range also includes red varieties and they share the same deep perfume.
Pruning Guide: Prune summer flowering Damask varieties, once established, by a removal of one or two very old stems after flowering.
