Rosa ‘The Mill on the Floss™’ is a graceful David Austin shrub rose admired for its romantic, cupped blooms in soft light to mid pink tones, delicately edged with deeper carmine pink. The flowers are often carried in generous clusters and may show subtle lilac shades when young, creating a beautifully layered colour effect in the garden.
This variety is strongly fragrant, offering a medium to strong sweet fruity perfume. It forms a large, healthy shrub with glossy foliage and excellent disease resistance. Its nodding flower form and repeat blooming habit make it ideal for borders, feature planting, and mixed shrub gardens.
