Rose ‘Cardinal de Richelieu’ - Gallica Rose

Rose ‘Cardinal de Richelieu’ is a regal Gallica rose boasting velvety deep wine‑purple, fully double blooms that blush to lilac and mauve with time. Once flowering in early summer, it offers a bold burst of fragrance and colour atop a compact, nearly thornless shrub reaching around 1-1.5 m tall. Glossy dark green foliage and hardiness in temperate climates make it a striking choice for heritage borders or as a dramatic focal point.

Plant in full sun to light shade, in fertile well‑drained soil. Prune after flowering and pair with silver‑leaved perennials or pale blooms for a refined, contrasting scheme.

Supplied in approx. 3-5 litre containers.
