Alcea rosea 'Chater's Rose' - 2026

Alcea rosea 'Chater's Rose' is a hardy biennial or short-lived perennial prized for its tall spikes of large, double rose-pink flowers that bloom from mid to late summer. The upright growth habit and showy blooms create a striking vertical feature in borders, cottage gardens, or against walls and fences. Its flowers attract bees and other pollinators, providing both colour and ecological value.

Thriving in full sun with well-drained soil, 'Chater's Rose' is relatively low-maintenance and may require staking in exposed sites. The combination of architectural height, long-lasting blooms, and pollinator-friendly flowers makes it a visually appealing and versatile addition to perennial and mixed borders.
