It exudes a rich, myrrh-like fragrance and flowers continuously from late spring to autumn. Growing to around 1.5 metres, it forms a bushy, healthy shrub perfect for borders or feature planting. With classic old-world charm, exceptional scent, and reliable performance, the Ancient Mariner is a must-have rose for fragrance lovers and romantic garden designs.
How to grow

Plant in an open, sunny position, in free-draining, neutral soil that is rich in organic matter. Water deeply to encourage strong roots when establishing and provide supplementary watering during dry periods. Roses are heavy feeders and will benefit from organic fertiliser, twice-yearly in heavy soils (spring and late summer) or four times in sandy soil. Deadhead regularly for repeat flowering. Prune in late-winter for size and shape, leaving new long canes to produce next season's flowers. Tie or fan canes into position.
