The latest rival in the world of bridal floristry is the soft and sweet, cream coloured garden rose Darlington. It is absolutely perfect for a bridal bouquet, matching the bride’s glass of champagne to a tee. The colour is buttery soft with a touch of light pink. As Darlington opens into her full glory she becomes lighter in colour.

The size of the rose is perfect, it is not too large or heavy, making it very suitable for bridal work. It is a strong rose, upholding well during transport. Darlington’s vase life is also worthy of mention, it can continue to be enjoyed long after the big day has come and gone.

Available from April to November.
