Description

Warm, luminous and quietly romantic, Imogen is a David Austin rose that brings a gentle glow to the garden. Its blooms open in soft yellow tones and mature into beautifully formed rosettes — the kind of rose that looks equally at home in a classic cottage border or a more modern, pared-back scheme.
As part of the David Austin English Rose range — one of the most desirable choices for roses — Imogen offers that signature old-rose charm with the garden performance we all want: repeat flowering, a strong shrub shape, and a fragrance that draws you in.

Why we love it

Imogen is a brilliant “bridging” rose — it softens brighter colours, lifts deeper tones, and brings that warm, sunny feel without shouting. It’s especially lovely planted in groups, or woven through perennials where the blooms can pop up like little lanterns.

Caragh Garden Notebook

For the best repeat flowering: water consistently in dry spells, feed in spring and early summer, and deadhead spent blooms back to a strong leaf to encourage fresh buds.
A gorgeous choice if you want a David Austin rose with warmth, elegance, and that unmistakable English-rose finish.
