Sir David Beckham
Rosa 'Ausa34b16'
An upright, strong shrub with an open, balanced habit. The medium sized blooms are deeply cupped, the outer petals gently upturned,opening from soft white with a hint of yellow to clear, fresh white. Exceptionally free-flowering, the blooms are borne in large, open sprays. The petals have a delicate green banana scent which evolves into a honeyed musk scent, with notes of nougat and clove coming through as the flower opens out. The Sir David Beckham rose has been created in partnership with The King’s Foundation, for which Sir David Beckham serves as an Ambassador. As part of this collaboration, from each rose sale, £2.50 is donated to King Charles III’s nature and sustainability charity, supporting its work building sustainable communities and celebrating heritage crafts. This gesture reflects our shared commitment to craftsmanship, sustainability, and a deep respect for the natural world.
