Anny Duperey

Full Description:

We would never admit to having a favourite rose. Every variety in the Famous Roses collection has its own personality and deserves its place in the garden. Yet Anny Duperey has a way of remaining in your thoughts long after you have walked away from it.

One look explains why. Its flowers seem to grow sunrays rather than petals, opening in luminous shades of golden and lemon yellow. Each bloom contains approximately 85 petals arranged in a full, romantic form, while the lighter outer petals give the flowers a gentle, glowing finish.

Anny Duperey is exceptionally early to begin flowering and continues producing generous clusters from May until the first frost. Its light, pleasantly sweet fragrance carries delicate citrus nuances that complement the freshness of its colour.

Behind this joyful appearance is an unusually resilient plant. Its dense foliage has excellent natural resistance to common rose diseases, pests and pollution, making it particularly valuable for gardeners who prefer reliable results with fewer interventions.

The prestigious German ADR distinction confirms this strong garden performance. Roses receiving this recognition are assessed for flowering, foliage health, resilience and ornamental value under demanding growing conditions.

Anny Duperey forms a compact, bushy and upright shrub approximately 80–110 cm tall. Planted alone, it becomes a bright focal point; planted in groups, it creates a continuous ribbon of yellow that seems to hold the sunlight even on cloudy days.
