Cultivar description

About Benjamin Britten

Benjamin Britten is especially worth considering when fragrance is part of the garden experience. Its flower colour, scent, and mature size all affect where it will be enjoyed most often.

Cultivar overview

Benjamin Britten is a english shrub rose from David Austin. Introduced in 2001, it is best understood through its deep red-pink colour, medium, fruity scent profile, and repeat bloom habit. Its medium, fruity fragrance is one of the main reasons to consider it for a spot close to people. Repeat flowering makes it easier to plan for more than one moment of interest during the season.

Garden character and use

Place it where fragrance can be noticed in passing: near a path, seating area, gate, or a mixed border close to daily movement. At about 4 ½ feet by 4 feet, it needs a position where mature growth will not feel crowded. Its deep red-pink colour gives it a romantic colour range that softens borders and pairs easily with classic perennials.

Bloom, fragrance, and care notes

Benjamin Britten is strongest for gardeners who care about both scent and repeat bloom. With petal count noted as 60, the bloom has a useful clue to fullness and shape. Give it good airflow, steady watering, and a sunny position so the fragrance and flower form have the best chance to show well.
