Notes, Photos, and Shared Experience

Read the overview first, then look through shared photos and real grower notes to get a better feel for how this rose behaves.

Overview

Flowers full, cupped,borne singly and in small clusters, intense fragrance,vigorous, upright, bushy growth The Chaucer rose has shell pink flowers fading as they unfurl with a golden yellow glow in the center of the rose petals. The Chaucer Rose is a good performer with a slight tendency to the fungal problems so it is best not to plant them too close to the coast. The flowers are great cut and very fragrant. Chaucer is a medium sized rose approaching 3-4 feet tall. Chaucer is the result of a cross between 'Duchess de Montebello' and 'Constance Spry'.
