Rosa ‘Graham Thomas’ is a vigorous English shrub rose prized for its exceptionally rich, pure-yellow blooms and classic cupped flower form. The medium-sized, fully double flowers are carried generously above smooth green foliage, creating a bright and uplifting display in garden beds and borders. Its distinctive Tea rose fragrance, with subtle violet notes, adds extra appeal when planted near pathways, patios and outdoor living areas.
Repeat flowering over an extended season, ‘Graham Thomas’ produces successive flushes of colour from late spring through autumn and may continue into early winter in favourable climates. Its upright, bushy growth makes it suitable for mixed borders, rose gardens, large containers and informal flowering hedges. In warm climates, its vigorous stems may also be trained against a fence, pillar or trellis as a short climber.
