A tribute to the nation’s bravest, the ‘Chelsea Pensioner’ rose blooms with the same enduring spirit and vibrant red hue as the iconic scarlet coats worn by the Royal Hospital Chelsea’s residents.
This Hybrid Tea rose showcases radiant, rich red flowers with up to 50 petals, creating a stunning display against its lush, dark green foliage. Delight in its complex, yet captivating fragrance, with subtle hints of spice.
Enjoy a continuous display of blooms throughout the season, as pointed buds unfurl into exquisite flowers measuring up to 10cm across. The soft, yet resilient petals withstand even the harshest weather conditions.
Exclusively grown by Harkness Roses, the ‘Chelsea Pensioner’ was proudly launched at the 2024 RHS Chelsea Flower Show. As a testament to our commitment to supporting veterans, we donate £2.50 from the sale of each rose to the Royal Hospital Chelsea. This esteemed charity provides care and companionship to retired British Army servicemen and women, ensuring they have a comfortable and fulfilling retirement.
