cabbage roses

Full, layered flowers

Cabbage roses are a type of garden rose with large, full blooms featuring numerous overlapping petals that create a rounded, densely packed shape resembling a cabbage head.

They are prized for their old-fashioned appearance, strong fragrance, and soft colors ranging from white through pink to deep red.

Cabbage roses appear frequently in traditional floral patterns on wallpaper, upholstery, and chintz fabrics, where their lush, romantic quality evokes English cottage style.
