Plant Profile: Rosa 'Old Blush'

The 'Old Blush' rose, a variety that has been cherished in China for centuries, made its way to Europe in 1752. This rose features a graceful arching growth habit, reaching heights of up to 5 feet, and can be trained to function as a short climber. Its charming pink semi-double flowers bloom abundantly throughout the entire season. Known for its resilience, this shrub is easy to cultivate, resistant to diseases, and boasts a nearly thorn-free nature.

This rose thrives in less-than-ideal soils and partial shade, although it flourishes best in moderately fertile, moist, and well-drained conditions. It can be utilized as a stunning specimen on a trellis or for effective screening purposes.
