Rose 'Wisley 2008'
Rose 'Wisley 2008' is an elegant English shrub rose from David Austin, producing beautifully formed shallowly cupped rosette blooms in a pure, delicate light pink. Measuring around 7–8cm across, each flower has outer petals that soften gently towards the edges, creating a refined and graceful appearance.
Introduced in 2008, this charming variety flowers repeatedly from early summer into autumn, producing blooms along much of each stem to create a full, abundant display. The flowers are accompanied by a light fruity fragrance that adds subtle perfume without overpowering, making it a wonderful choice for both the garden and the vase.
Forming a vigorous, well-balanced shrub with elegant arching stems, 'Wisley 2008' is ideal for mixed borders, cottage gardens and cutting gardens. Thriving in full sun with fertile, well-drained soil, it is easy to grow and rewards gardeners with reliable repeat flowering, graceful growth and timeless English rose beauty.

Getting the most from your new Rose
Where to plant
Choose an open, sunny position with free-draining soil. Avoid planting where roses have grown before or transfer fresh soil to the site. Patio roses can be planted in mixed borders or alongside other roses, or in pots and containers.
Planting
Roses love organic matter, so mix well-rotten manure, leaf mould or compost into the soil. Water thoroughly before planting. Make a hole big enough not to disturb the root ball. Remove from the pot and ensure the top of the root ball is level with the surrounding soil. Back-fill soil mixed with a good fertilizer, then firm. Water thoroughly.
Aftercare
Water well until established. Mulching will keep the soil weed-free and moist. For best results feed your roses with fertilizer in spring and again in summer. Remove faded flowers to encourage speedy repeat flowering.
Simple Pruning
Prune your rose in March or before new growth by removing any dead or very thin branches and reducing the height by 1/3 to 2/3 of the previous growth.
