Rosa 'Lady of Shallott' is a robust, bushy shrub rose with mid-green leaves, which shows excellent resistance to a variety of rose diseases. A versatile shrub rose with arching stems, it may be grown as a shrub or trained as a short climber. Throughout summer it bears masses of orange-red, chalice-shaped blooms with a delicate tea fragrance.

It was named for the Tennyson Society to celebrate the 200th birthday of Alfred, Lord Tennyson, and shares a name with one of his poems.

In common with many roses, Rosa 'Lady of Shallott' grows well in a variety of soil types but does better if mulched with well-rotted manure or compost. Hard prune in February and help prolong flowering by deadheading regularly, and adding a high potash feed every fortnight in summer.
