Hybrid Musk roses are a relatively rare group that were developed from the old Musk Rose 'Rosa moschata' mainly in England in the early 20th century by a clergyman Joseph Pemberton. (Hence the reason they are sometimes called Pemberton Roses).
These roses appear delicate but are in fact very hardy, combining gorgeous fragrance with extremely good vigour and beautiful, soft coloured flowers.
They go well planted as gracefully spreading shrubs or low climbers and are very well suited to scrambling over walls and fences.
They like plenty of sun but can handle partial shade, they are particularly floriferous and are renowned for their repeat blooming - though individual blooms can be relatively small.
Hybrids Musk Roses are usually found in shades of pink, white, yellow and apricot.
These are tough roses, being able to withstand greater ranges of temperature than many others.
