More about Nostalgic roses:
Nostalgic roses are new collection of roses bred by Tantau. They have very full, fragrant blooms, reminiscent of old fashioned roses but with a more compact growth than many shrub roses of this type. Flowering over a very long period, with good resistance to disease, these roses are also excellent for cut blooms.
Rachel is a Gold Standard award winning rose. Her large blooms are fragrant, peachy pink and very full, with attractive frilled petals. Abundant mid green glossy foliage and a good repeat flowerer, this rose is particularly beautiful as a cut flower.
Pruning Guide: Prune in February/ March. Prune very lightly in the first year, reducing stems by no more than a third. In subsequent years, growths can be reduced by up to a half to leave a beautifully shapely plant.
