So I had to move the fence and all plants. 3 month hard work for us…but this year we can enjoy all of our old plants and 7 of your recommended roses. Country parson is my favorite, best performance in the first year and an amazing scent. Emma Hamilton and Ben Austin have been flowering more than the last years. Best regards Karina

My climate in the US is different but I enjoyed the video very much. Interestingly, Scepter d'Isle is my very, very favorite David Austin and the blooms are the visual equivalent of angels singing. It does not ball for me at all but Happy Child balls terribly here. Lady Emma Hamilton, despite the fabulous color, was my weakest performer and it died this year. I hardly ever kill roses but it was a weakling here. I have several others but Scepter d'Isle is my favorite and it isn't close!

Really interesting to hear your comments Ben and to see the flowers in each case. I love David Austin roses. I have Scepter'd Isle, Princess Alexandra of Kent and Munstead Wood together in a large raised bed; Eustacia Vye and The Mayflower both new this year and in pots; the rambler Lady of the Lake, the Pilgrim, Teasing Georgia and Claire Austin growing alongside a fence; 5 Kew Gardens as a small hedge out front (no thorns to snag passersby!) and 2 others in the back garden one is a small pink climber and the other a large deep red shrub rose whose names I've sadly forgotten! Oh and Emily Brontë how could I forget her?! But a real favourite of mine is Wild Edric - have you come across him? He's a bit like a rugosa rose with cerise flowers that open fully with a really strong scent. He's incredibly robust and free flowering but he is large and packs some pretty vicious thorns so don't put him somewhere where you're going to have to squeeze past him because he will bite! I do love him inspite of that. He's usually first to flower and goes on for months. I've pretty much run out of space now, hence the 2 roses in pots, but your videos are very tempting - maybe I can persuade my husband to reduce the size of his shed!

I had five summer songs the bloom is a beautiful dark apricot light orange the fragrance is stunning but it is blighted by black spot mould and leaf drop it was incredibly sensitive to heat and in the end unfortunately it didn’t make the cut when we moved from our previous house for years ago I brought over 640 plants with us for our new garden Summersong and Caroline night along with Winchester Cathedral we all left behind
