Elegant, luminous, and effortlessly graceful, Lichfield Angel™ is a stunning English shrub rose from David Austin®, admired for its soft, creamy-white blooms and refined garden presence. Named after the medieval stone angel found in Lichfield Cathedral, this variety embodies timeless beauty with flowers that evolve through a captivating range of colors as they mature.
The blooms begin as delicate pale peachy-pink buds, opening into beautifully cupped rosettes before developing into large, fully petaled, creamy-white flowers with a soft, glowing appearance. Packed with over 100 petals, each bloom brings remarkable substance and texture to the garden while maintaining an elegant, airy feel.
Complementing its beauty is a subtle, pleasing fragrance featuring gentle notes of clove and musk. The flowers are carried on strong, nearly thornless stems above healthy, semi-gloss foliage, making Lichfield Angel™ an excellent choice for both garden enjoyment and cut flower arrangements. Its vigorous, rounded growth habit and reliable repeat blooming ensure months of beauty from late spring through fall.
Whether planted in mixed borders, cottage gardens, containers, or low hedges, Lichfield Angel™ offers exceptional versatility, outstanding disease resistance, and a serene elegance that enhances any landscape.
