Rose Gentle Hermione is a repeat flowering shrub rose with well formed shallow cups in a pure light pink that fades to a soft blush on the outer petals. The young foliage starts red before turning green and the blooms carry a strong myrrh scent. It grows best in a sunny spot with soil that stays moist yet drains freely and offers steady colour through the season. This variety suits borders or larger containers where its soft tones and full blooms can be appreciated up close.
