Rosa 'Gabriel Oak' | Gabriel Oak English Rose
DESCRIPTION
Rosa ‘Gabriel Oak’ is an English shrub rose with deep pink, many‑petaled rosette blooms that gently fade at the edges. These richly petaled flowers—each with strong, fruity fragrance—repeat from late spring through fall, gracing lush, rounded foliage and purple stems. Sleek, rounded growth and clean, dark green leaves reinforce its elegant form while fragrant blooms attract pollinators and add sensory delight to gardens.
Bred by David Austin in the United Kingdom and introduced in 2019, ‘Gabriel Oak’s vigorous, compact habit and disease‑resistant nature earned hands-on praise and display gold at the Chelsea Flower Show. The rose’s classic coloration, fragrance, and reliable bloom make it a standout performer for hedges, borders, or cut‑flower planting.
