About this plant
Rosa 'Chewpeachdell' is a shrub rose with delicate blossoms in a warm peach hue, often appearing in soft apricot tones. The semi‑double to full blooms open from mid to late spring and continue through fall, offering a light, fruity fragrance that enhances garden ambiance. Glossy, dark green foliage forms a rich backdrop, and the rose blooms in clusters, providing steady seasonal interest and floral texture.
Developed in the United Kingdom and introduced in 2002, 'Chewpeachdell' is valued for repeat flowering, reliability, and its landscape appeal. It presents upright growth with occasional arching, and its clear peach coloration holds well in sunlit conditions. The rose adds soft warmth and graceful structure to mixed beds, hedges, or foundation plantings.
Planting & care
Roses reward a sunny, open site with at least six hours of direct light, good air movement, and well-drained soil rich in organic matter. Water deeply and less often, soaking the root zone while keeping the leaves dry, and mulch with two to three inches of compost or shredded bark held back from the canes. Feed repeat-blooming roses in early spring as growth starts and again after the first flush, then prune in late winter to remove dead or crossing canes and open the center. Shrub roses need only light thinning, keeping their natural full shape and repeat bloom.
Where to see it
This plant can be seen at the Woodland Park Rose Garden.
