Rosa 'Arthur Bell' (syn. 'T11 AgCan') is a rose cultivar, bred by Sam McGredy IV in Northern Ireland in 1956.[1] It is a cross between 'Cläre Grammerstorf' and 'Piccadilly', and is classed as a modern floribunda rose.
'Arthur Bell' forms compact deciduous shrub of upright bushy growth to 1 m (3 ft) height with repeat-flowering properties. In summer it bears clusters of very fragrant, bright yellow flowers fading to pale yellow. They reach an average diameter of 3 inches (7.6 cm) and have up to 25 petals.
This rose has gained numerous awards, including the Royal National Rose Society's Certificate of Merit (1964), and the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit (1993).[2]
It was named for the Scotch whiskey maker.[3]
There is also a climbing sport, which was discovered by Pearce in 1978 and introduced as 'Arthur Bell, Cl.'.[4] In 2001, the sport was granted the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.[5]
