Overview
Stanwell Perpetual is a shrub rose with pale pink flowers and a moderate fragrance. It stays fairly low at around 1 m (3 ft) but spreads wider, to about 1.5 m (5 ft), so it forms a broad, mounded plant. It holds the RHS Award of Garden Merit, granted in 2012. Use it toward the front or middle of a mixed border or as a low informal hedge, where its spreading habit can fill space.
