Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Leander Hybrid. Bright, deep pink. Approximately 130 petals. Repeat flowering. A rose of more modern character than most English Roses. The flowers start as small buds, opening to a full-petalled, wide-open rosettes of a bright, deep pink, the color intensifying further with age. The flowers are 2 ½-3 inches across and are produced very freely. A healthy and very bushy shrub of medium size with a slightly arching habit. With its bright coloration this is a good choice to create some contrast in a border of other roses of softer coloring. Sir John Betjeman was a writer, journalist and broadcaster, who was born just over 100 years ago. 3 ½ x 2 ½ ft. (David Austin 2008, Ausvivd).
