Darcy Bussell is stated by David Austin to be “…one of the best and most healthy red roses developed to date." Enjoy beautiful flowers that are produced freely and with excellent continuity. When young, their outer petals form a perfect ring around an inner cup; gradually opening out to form a perfect rosette. The color of these roses is a deep rich crimson that takes on a tinge of mauve just before the petals drop. The flowers on Darcy Bussell have a pleasing, fruity fragrance. With its short, bushy growth, consider this English Rose variety for the front of the border or for planting in formal rose beds. It will make an excellent plant for a large pot. It is the first fully double crimson to be released since the best selling William Shakespeare 2000 and is perfect for gardeners who would prefer a more compact shrub. Darcy Bussell has growth to about 3 by 2 feet, and is shipped potted in soil to ensure the best possible start when planted in yard or garden.
