Rosa 'William Lobb' (Old Rose)
Rosa 'William Lobb', also known as 'Old Velvet Moss', is a historic and enchanting moss rose introduced in 1855. It is renowned for its distinctive and heavily mossed buds, which exude a delightful resinous fragrance. The blooms are large, full, and richly colored in shades of deep pink to purple, often with a hint of crimson. This vigorous climber or shrub rose can reach impressive heights, making it a stunning addition to any garden.
Just watch out for the small razor sharp thorns with 'William Lobb.' It makes a great security barrier.
