Rosa 'Carding Mill™' is an English shrub rose prized for glowing, many-petaled rosettes in warm apricot-orange tones that mellow to soft pink as the flowers age. You will also notice a classic myrrh fragrance, especially on warm days. This repeat-blooming rose forms a tidy, upright shrub that fits well into mixed borders, cottage gardens, and as a standout specimen where you can enjoy the scent up close.

Give your rose a sunny location for the best bloom display; full sun is ideal. Plant in fertile, well-drained soil and water deeply during dry stretches, keeping moisture consistent while the plant establishes. A 24-36 in. spread makes it easy to tuck into beds without crowding neighbors, but allow enough air flow for healthier foliage. Feed in spring as new growth begins, then again after the first flush of flowers to support repeat bloom. Deadhead spent blooms to encourage more flowering through the season.

Prune in late winter or early spring to shape the shrub and remove weak, crossing, or dead stems. Mulch to conserve moisture and moderate soil temperatures, keeping mulch a few inches away from the canes. In colder areas, protect the crown in winter. This rose is generally hardy in USDA Zones 5-9 and matures around 36-48 in. tall, making it a great choice for adding long-season color and fragrance without taking over the garden.
