Rose Susan Williams-Ellis, Rosa 'Ausquirk', Shrub Roses, David Austin Roses
Extremely winter hardy, David Austin English Rose Susan Williams-Ellis is a ‘sport’ of Austin’s popular pink rose, The Mayflower, introduced in 2001. Like its parent, this exceptional white rose features vigorous disease resistance and flowers very early in the season – two to three weeks before most other roses – and continues to bloom nearly non-stop until frost. Susan Williams-Ellis is an excellent performer in most areas of the U.S. Those in cooler areas, including USDA zone 4, will welcome this exciting addition to the list of particularly winter-hardy Austin roses. It features charming rosette-shaped, pure white flowers (135 petals), rich with a strong and perfectly old rose fragrance.
