  • About Old Blush
  • Other Details
  • With her earliest discovery date going back to before 1793, Old Blush is one of the oldest and strongest roses in the world. Her blooms are silvery pink with a deeper flush decorated with loose and semi-double, free-flowering blossoms. Old Blush doesn’t need much care and can be treated as a flowering shrub. She will reward you with an abundance of sweet pea-scented blooms. She has been grown in China since before the 10th century making her a rose of historical importance. She will thrive as a hedge or border, growing wild and free as she has done for centuries.

Fabulous

I just planted this rose last Spring, and neglected it except for occasional water through weeks of 100°+ heat in the San Joaquin Valley. It wouldn't be defeated, and now on December 31st it's STILL blooming! It has at least 30 blooms on it right now plus lots of buds. A truly amazing variety. And what a lovely clear shade of pink!
Heirloom Roses sells the most vigorous healthy plants. Everything I have purchased from them has grown well, despite my neglect.
