Super beautiful ❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉

Thank you so much for this update! When choosing plants for my parents’ front yard at their bungalow in Santa Ana, I knew I wanted the At Last rose for a front “hedge”, but I really also wanted at least one David Austin rose. I looked, but couldn’t find a lot of recent information on KZfaq or otherwise online about what was really suited to our area, but I remember looking at what you had put out about your rose garden. Your Front Door Lady of Shallott (which I love in name and color, but it was too similar to At Last’s color to copy your choice) really confirmed to me what to do! I chose to do a climber, to replace a potato vine that had come with the house (wrapping around the Northwest corner of the front porch, lots of heat and sun in summer afternoons and evenings) but had finally worn out its last life after we permanently stopped watering the lawn. I almost chose a climbers/ramblers with the small blooms in yellow or pale pink, but at the last second on the website I switched and ordered a bare root Wollerton Old Hall. It’s been looking good since it went into the ground, but I was especially happy when about a month or two after it was planted, I showed our landscaper (who is a neighbor and really fun guy to talk plants and gardening in California with, locals should def hire him because I’m getting him more into native plants too), and he was excited to learn which variety it was. One of this best clients have an Eichler house in Orange that he’s overhauled the yards of, and he said they have like 6 of the same rose I chose, only 2 season in now, and they are thriving and incredible. He said the scent is as amazing as they say online. I was so thrilled, because I hadn’t found it on a ton of lists/examples for California, and they didn’t even stock it this year at Roger’s Gardens (apparently they had their own really old one growing there for quite some time, though it’s gone now). Climates in Santa Ana and Orange differ very slightly, but I have super high hopes for this rose and am already imagining where else we could put more David Austins (maybe the east-facing wall in the side yard needs a ton of climbers!) It’s amazing to see how yours are doing; it’s been a great year for roses, weather-wise, I think! This Santa Ana house is meant to be part income property, part family hub, so even though I’m aiming for a garden that stays fairly low-maintenance, I want to also have a lot of flowers we can cut- I’m aiming for something we can let it get a little wild like an English cottage garden, mixing tons of California natives with non-invasive non-natives. This approach is perfect for the architecture style too, because it’s a cottagey-Craftsman California Bungalow, slightly later (1919) than the ultimate bungalow heyday. It was exciting to me to hear you talking about flower growing when you guested on the Epic Gardening podcast around the time my family purchased it, because you are so close to me and the amount of Gardening content to casually absorb coming from Southern California specifically was pretty limited. So I always want to see what you are up to when I am looking for ideas or recommendations! Keep it up!

FRIIIIIEEENND! Your roses are so stunning. Your Graham Thomas is incredible. I just planted two in containers to train in front of my office and holy moly is yours so inspiring. My Eden is in its 4th year and i can’t wait for it to get as vigorous as yours. Also your Lady of Shallot is to die for. I may have to see if i can find a place for one somewhere. I can never have tok many climbing roses!

Love your garden! I just planted my very first DA… scepter d isle and golden celebration on my birthday a week a ago and I see buds already!

I love your roses, Am glad I came across your channel because I just planted my first 2 David Austin roses yesterday I cant wait for next year when they bloom, I will plant 2 more tomorrow, and one of them is lady of shallot. wish me luck, am in zone 8B.

Hello, from Northern CA. Awesome to see your Benjamin Britten because I have one too. I don't see many people grow them. It was my first DA rose because I love red roses. I want to get a yellow DA, but can't decide between Golden Celebration or Graham Thomas.

Gorgeous roses!! I love David Austin's as well and have several in my Indiana garden. Do you spray or use a systemic on yours, and was also wondering if you get the dreaded Japanese beetles out where you are?

So lovely roses in your garden! I have just became obsessed with DA roses but it’s hard to get in Canada as most nurseries don’t care them.

hello from Ireland , thanks for posting this. I envy your climate, Im i😅n zone 9 but its a wet, soggy, gray climate, our roses are shades of red, white, blue😊, yello, orange and black(spot) 😩

I’m nervous because I’m about to order from David Austin‘s website and I’ve been watching a lot of YT videos trying to do my research to pick which ones I want, and I keep hearing about people ordering a specific Rose, getting it, planting it, and then when the first bloom hits come to find out, it’s not the correct Rose they ordered

Pozdrawiam z Polski ( Poland )🤗

Your roses are amazing!! If I may ask do you have to spray in your area or for example do you deal with rose saw fly?

I love my Desdemona but last year the gopher eat the roots. 😔

Does your eden climber like shade or do you find it needs more sun?

What type of artemisia is that in your garden? I'm looking for a silver foliage plant that grows to that height.

What are you doing with feeding and watering? I live in CA and sometimes it feels like they hate the full sun heat
