The Endeavor - Shrub Rose
(cv. AUSdisco)

(Bicolor: Salmon-Pink with Yellow Reverse)

Rosa The Endeavor - The Endeavor Shrub Rose (Bicolor)Unusual amongst the Austin intros for a few reasons. Firstly, it’s a bicolor of even salmon-pink with a yellow reverse and the monstrous blossoms keep that contrast throughout the life of the flower.

Secondly, it’s a hot-weather lover…so much so that it will not be introduced in the UK. Lastly, its large dark grey-green leaves provide the most attractive foliage yet in this line. Floriferous enough to be a successful Climber in our milder climates.

Fragrance: Moderate spicy
Hybridizer: Austin—2006
