Rose - Child's Love

Common Name:
Child’s Love Rose

Description:
Rosa 'Child’s Love' is a romantic hybrid tea rose featuring perfectly formed, large blooms in a soft shell-pink to blush rose tone, often with a subtle creamy undertone at the base of the petals. The flowers are delicately perfumed with a light, sweet fragrance and are borne singly on long, elegant stems, making this variety ideal for cutting gardens and floral arrangements. With its classic rose shape and refined colour, 'Child’s Love' adds a timeless charm to cottage gardens, formal plantings, or as a standalone feature in beds and borders. Flowering from late spring through autumn, it thrives in Melbourne’s climate, enjoying full sun and fertile, well-drained soil. With good disease resistance and a strong, upright growth habit, this rose is a favourite for those seeking beauty, form, and fragrance in one refined package.
