Rose ‘Roald Dahl’ is a healthy English shrub rose from David Austin with soft orange red buds that open into perfectly cupped apricot rosettes. The flowers have a gentle fruity Tea scent and appear repeatedly through summer on a rounded bushy shrub with very few thorns. Growing to about 90cm tall and 110cm wide, it suits mixed borders, rose beds, containers and informal hedges, and performs well in both sun and partial shade. Its warm apricot colouring was chosen to echo the peach from James and the Giant Peach, making it a cheerful choice for any garden.
