Nye Bevan English Rose enhances the outlook of all those who encounter its delicate beauty and distinctive Myrrh aroma. It is aptly named after Aneurin “Nye” Bevan, a benevolent UK healthcare proponent. This English perennial shrub rose, bred by the acclaimed David Austin, features 3-inch, cupped, pale yellow blooms, lightly fading to cream from the centers to the outer petals. Resembling a taffeta tutu, each floret consists of more than forty gossamer petals tucked loosely around a flaxen center. Complemented by lustrous green foliage, this compact showstopper grows to 3.5 feet.
The blooms emit a sweet fragrance with spicy hints of licorice. Use it in a foundation planting or near a window where its beauty and fragrance can be appreciated. Introduced in 2021, this vigorous shrub is cold hardy in zones 5 to 11. It is not deer resistant and should be protected in rural areas prone to deer foraging.
Nye Bevan English Rose Care
Nye Bevan English Rose thrives in full sun. Plant this gorgeous ornamental in a hole as deep as the root ball and a few inches wider than the container. This perennial prefers loamy, moist, slightly acidic soil with a pH near its golden spot, 6.5. Improve deficient soil by mixing in compost. Water deeply, providing 1-2 inches of water weekly when the soil feels dry. Once or twice during the summer, apply a slow-release fertilizer for roses.
This plant blooms on new wood, so prune it during early spring. Cut back all stems to 12 to 18 inches, removing dead, damaged, diseased, and crossed stems. For potted plants, select a container with a diameter of 12 inches. Cover with the root zone with mulch to overwinter this plant in colder climates.
Nye Bevan English Rose Spacing
Space each rose 2-3 feet apart in hedges and borders. Plant with companions such as verbena, lavender, Russian sage, and foxglove. Nye Bevan grows well in containers as a single specimen. Make beautiful cut flower bouquets with this shrub’s aromatic blossoms mixed with artemisia, delphinium, dusty miller, celosia, cosmos, hydrangea, and strawflower.

We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability).

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
