Graham Thomas bears medium-sized, cupped blooms of an unusually rich, pure yellow. There is a light Tea fragrance, with a cool violet character. It forms a bushy, upright and vigorous shrub, with attractive, smooth green foliage. A medium sized shrub, perfect for pots, containers or rose hedges. Named for the British horticulturist who was one of the most influential gardeners of his time. Graham Thomas was a frequent visitor to the David Austin nursery and offered encouragement and advice. He chose this rose himself. He gathered a collection of Old Roses, which formed the basis of the National Collection at Mottisfont Abbey in Hampshire.
