“Lest We Forget” is a popular shrub rose that features masses lightly fragrant, dark red flowers. The showy blooms emerge in spring and continue until autumn provided the spent flowers are removed. The foliage comprises small-sized, dark green leaves which provide a lovely backdrop to the flowers. This standardised rose is grafted at 80 cm which results in a plant that typically grows to 1.3 m tall and 50 cm wide. It is generally pruned each winter with about 75% of the aerial stems removed. It performs best when planted in full sun on a well-drained, sheltered site, and is tolerant of frost and cool climates. It also has exceptional disease resistance. “Lest We Forget” is commonly included in a mixed or border planting, included in a courtyard or cottage garden, maintained in a container, or included anywhere the beauty and fragrance can be appreciated.
