FRENCH ORIGIN - The Gaujard was bred by Jean-Marie Gaujard in France in 1957. He came from a long line of horticulturalists and rose breeders starting with his great-grandfather who was head gardener at Versailles in 1698. LOOK - This rose bush has a bushy habit with glossy, dark green leaves bearing scrolled urn-shaped buds opening to lightly fragrant, semi-double to double flowers with cherry red petals with a silver reverse. HEIGHT & SPREAD - The Gaujard rose will grow to a height of 1.5–1 5 metres with a spread of 1.5–1.5 metres. PLANTING POSITION - Plant in full sun, but will tolerate other aspects too. It is best not to plant roses where other roses have grown previously. PLEASE NOTE - Your rose bush may not be in flower at time of dispatch. All of our roses bushes are cut back from OCTOBER - MARCH every year to help maintain a strong plant.
