About David Austin® Young Lycidas® Potted Rose Bush
Rosa ‘Ausvibrant’ PAT. PP 20,960 – Young Lycidas® Rose
Young Lycidas® is a rose of depth, drama, and old-world richness. Her large deeply cupped blooms unfold in saturated deep pink tones touched with magenta and crimson undertones, creating a velvety intensity that feels both romantic and theatrical. The densely petaled flowers gather in generous clusters, bringing weight and richness to the shrub throughout the flowering season.
Her fragrance is exceptionally strong and complex — one of the defining qualities of the variety — carrying the luxurious character of classic old roses with layers of warmth and spice. Repeating steadily through the season, Young Lycidas® combines expressive color with a substantial garden presence.
The shrub itself forms a balanced, upright structure that feels lush without becoming heavy, making it ideal for borders and mixed plantings where fragrance and emotional impact are desired.
