Graceful, refined, and richly fragrant, Emily Brontë™ is a stunning English shrub rose from David Austin®, named in honor of the celebrated English novelist. This exceptional variety produces beautifully formed, flat blooms featuring soft pink outer petals surrounding a warm apricot center that gradually softens and fades to creamy tones as the flower matures. The result is an ever-changing display of delicate color and timeless elegance.
Emily Brontë™ is equally admired for its remarkable fragrance. Its blooms release a rich, complex perfume that blends classic tea rose and old rose notes with refreshing hints of lemon and grapefruit, creating a scent that is both sophisticated and unforgettable. The flowers are generously petaled and held on a strong, upright shrub with a naturally bushy habit, providing months of color and fragrance throughout the growing season.
With continuous repeat flowering, exceptional disease resistance, and versatile garden performance, Emily Brontë™ thrives in borders, containers, cottage gardens, and formal landscapes alike. Its combination of beauty, fragrance, and reliability makes it a standout addition to any rose collection.
