Named for the faithful wife of King Leontes in Shakespeare's The Winter's Tale, this Austin rose delivers abundant clusters of clear light pink blooms. Gentle Hermione® unfurls medium to large, old-fashioned flowers with a moderate fragrance of strong myrrh, old rose, and green undertones. Exceptionally versatile, ideal for beds and pollinator-friendly gardens.

More About Gentle Hermione®

Gentle Hermione® opens from pointed, pink-green buds in abundant clusters, revealing medium to large, deeply cupped blooms in clear light pink. As the very double flowers mature, they relax into shallow cups that reveal golden stamens at their centre. Moderately fragrant with strong myrrh layered with old rose and green undertones, these old-fashioned blooms bring both delicate colour and distinctive perfume to the garden.
Growing Details

Gentle Hermione® forms a bushy shrub reaching 4' × 4', thriving from CA Zones 5-6+ | USDA 4-5+ and beyond with excellent cold hardiness and heat tolerance. Clad in blue-green, leathery foliage with a matte finish, this repeat-blooming rose flowers abundantly throughout the season. Ideal for beds and pollinator-friendly gardens where its clusters of light pink blooms can be appreciated.
