One of the joys of shrub roses is the individuality of the varieties. Cardinal Hume has a cardinal red to purple bloom with an unusual musky perfume. With flowers in clusters of about 7 flowers it is a colourful display. The plant is wide growing and bushy with lots of leaves. The leaves are a greyish green which give a fascinating contrast to the richly coloured flowers. Registered Name: Harregale

Philip Harkness: "I love roses for the beautiful colours and perfumes. All of the rose varieties I have selected for the Masterpiece Collection ® are strong, healthy and easy to grow in any garden".
