Description
This delightful ‘Dr. Susan Michaelis’ rose simply exudes magnificence. The classic Hybrid Tea blooms with more than 40 unfurling petals in a beautiful shade of deep cerise pink, with the occasional fleck of silvery white.
Contrasting well against the dense and dark green glossy foliage, the flowers continue to look vibrant even when they start to fade, as the pink deepens to a striking purple. Not just a treat for the eyes, this variety gives off a subtle, yet spicy, perfume, which only intensifies as the summer evenings warm up.
We are proud to provide this rose, which is named after former airline pilot Dr. Susan Michaelis, who set up the ‘Lobular Moon Shot Project’ to raise awareness of Invasive Lobular Breast Cancer, which she was diagnosed with in 2013.
£2.50p from the sale of each Dr. Susan Michaelis Rose will be paid to The Institute of Cancer Research, London (ICR) to support their lobular breast cancer (ILC) research fund.
Supplied as a bare root rose ready for planting out.
Please note: On rare occasions we may run out of stock of bare root plants. Should this happen, we may upgrade your bare root to a potted rose of the same variety for the same price.
