Rosa 'Summer Song' (Summer Song English Rose)

Rosa 'Summer Song', commonly known as the Summer Song English Rose, is a distinctive English shrub rose bred by David Austin, admired for its unusual burnt orange to rich terracotta blooms and strong, captivating fragrance with notes of chrysanthemum, ripe banana, and tea. The large, fully double, cupped flowers are produced repeatedly from late spring through autumn, creating a bold and eye-catching display against healthy, matte green foliage. Its unique colouring makes it an exceptional choice for cottage gardens, mixed borders, and feature plantings where warm tones are desired.

Compact, bushy, and highly floriferous, Summer Song thrives in full sun and fertile, well-drained soil. Its repeat-flowering habit and striking blooms make it a favourite among collectors and gardeners looking for something truly distinctive. Whether planted as a standalone specimen, combined with complementary perennials, or featured in a dedicated rose garden, this exceptional variety provides months of vibrant colour, outstanding fragrance, and timeless English garden charm.
