More about Hybrid Musk roses:
Hybrid Musk Roses are a wonderful group of repeat flowering shrub roses first developed by the Rev. Joseph Pemberton. The flowers are medium-sized and come in large clusters. In addition to being strongly scented, they have a good range of colours which tend to be of delicate hues. Read more about Hybrid Musks in our blog post.
Pax (a.k.a. Peace) was introduced in 1918 to mark the end of the First World War. Its large trusses of semi-double, creamy white, ruffled flowers with golden anthers and rich musky fragrance make it a wonderful example of a Hybrid Musk. Blooming from June to Autumn, with nice dark foliage, it can also be used as a short climber.
Pruning Guide: Can be left unpruned to form dense shrubs, but to achieve good quality blooms and autumn flowering, remove spent flower heads in summer and shorten shoots by one third in winter.
