Cultivar description

About Carding Mill

Carding Mill 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

Carding Mill is a english shrub rose from David Austin. Introduced in 2004, it is best understood through its apricot-orange colour, medium, myrrh scent profile, and repeat bloom habit. Its medium, myrrh 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 31/2ft by 31/2ft, it needs a position where mature growth will not feel crowded. Its apricot-orange colour gives it a warm colour family that can shift beautifully with light and bloom age.

Bloom, fragrance, and care notes

Carding Mill is strongest for gardeners who care about both scent and repeat bloom. With petal count noted as 80, 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.
