English Rose 'Lichfield Angel'

FamilyRosaceae

Rosa ‘Lichfield Angel’, commonly known as the ‘Lichfield Angel’ English Rose, is a David Austin variety prized for its abundant blooms and luminous elegance. Its rounded, vigorous, bushy habit bears large, double, rosette-shaped flowers, opening with a warm cream delicately nuanced with apricot in the heart, and lightening to a soft ivory as they mature. Moderately fragrant, they release a subtle scent with notes of old rose and myrrh. Flowering profusely from early summer until the first frosts, this rose offers a refined presence in beds, borders, or low hedges. Its glossy medium green foliage enhances the softness of the petals. Rosa ‘Lichfield Angel’ attracts pollinating insects and brings romanticism and harmony to landscape designs.
