More relaxed in appearance than a typical English shrub rose bred by David Austin, Thomas Becket is a rambling rose with shrubby growth, perfect for naturalistic or informal borders and hedges. Its flouncy, loose-petaled, crimson-red rosettes repeat throughout the season and emit an old-rose fragrance with heavy notes of lemon zest.
