Munstead Wood

When the great David Austin sets out to create a rose, it is important that it surpasses the expectations of even the most skilled and demanding gardeners in the world. Because in this race to occupy a deserved place in everyone's hearts, there are many suitors, each more beautiful, more famous and more awarded by international juries.

One such successful rose is Munstead Wood. We are talking about a captivating presence in any garden, a rose that will stand out in a sea of ​​roses with its great combination of color and fragrance. An exceptional floribunda/shrub, with velvety flowers in shades of dark red, as if taken out of a romance novel.

Munstead Wood flowers are initially large and become slightly cup-shaped over time. They have around 75 petals each and come with a strong scent of old rose with fruity notes of blackberry and blueberry, blooming repeatedly throughout the season.

We at Famous Roses have noticed when it is best to admire it and we suggest you try it at home. When it is a little cloudy outside or even when it starts to rain a little with sunshine, it is the perfect time to go out into the garden and admire it. You will feel for a moment like in a British village or a small English garden.

Another thing you should know about Munstead Wood is that it can reach heights of 60 - 90 cm at maturity. And that, of course, if it is cared for with a lot of love. But we know it will be because we know our customers well.
