This one is my favourite to look at but I didn’t get it as I’m scared of bees so went for the ones less enticing for them. I have never grown a flower in my life but bought my very first pot rose from DA last week. I’m praying I can do this successfully 🙏🏼

Hope you love your rose and get over your fear of bees. I love being around lots of bees, even if you really get close to something like a sedum which are covered in summer they just seem to ignore you and go about their business

Nice, informative, and friendly video. Fragrance is most important to me, so my favourites are Gertrude Jekyll; it's unbeatable, Susan Williams-Ellis, which is pure white and very healthy, and Jubilee Celebration.

Thanks so much, really appreciate that. Getrude is beautiful isn’t it!! My fave rose for pure scent is Desdemona and Princess Alexandra of Kent. Susan Williams Ellis and Jubilee Celebration look stunning but I haven’t seen them growing before. Enjoy your beautiful roses!

I created a border of 6 Gabriel Oak roses underpowered with tulips and salvias. The rise is beautiful and the scent is delightful. Sadly I moved away from that address but I fully intend to recreate the border in my new garden. I have a number of other David Austn roses in pots. They are all such good quality

I planted 😊Gertrude Jekyll and Tottering by Gently last year and they were lovely . This year I’ve added Alberic Berber and Princess Anne from bare root plants. They are already looking very vigorous. I intend to train the Alberic Berbier over a rose arch. To be honest I think anything you get from this nursery will be a quality product and you can’t go wrong with their roses, Donald (Edinburgh).

Hi Donald, Getrude Jekyll just beautiful with that old rose scent, Desdemona is another one with beautiful Old Rose scent. I’m looking at a rambler myself actually, probably a single to train up a tree, Alberic Berbier looks beautiful though. Absolutely, I’m just thinking about a few more yellow shrubs for a mixed border! Enjoy your roses :)!

I got the rose bug when covid started and I invested my time in my garden so I thought I was going to put roses in there. I googled roses and come across. David, Austin and wow I got addicted. I have 18 rose in my garden and I love them all my favourite as to be emily bronte rose it smells amazing and I can't see and I can't wait for this year. They get better every year. Thank you for your information. It really helps when it comes to gardening. You can never have enough knowledge

Thanks so much for your comment. I was very similar actually in that I got the bug in 2019 then really added to the collection (actually more with hostas, all in containers, which I’ll definitely feature in the summer). It’s so addictive isn’t it lol , you just can’t have too many beautiful Roses, but 18 is an impressive number! Emily Bronte is beautiful!! Spoiler alert, more DA vids coming soon :)

My favorite David Austin Roses are Jude the Obscure, The Prince, Abraham Darby, and The Squire. These four roses performed superbly for me as first-year rooted cuttings producing many very beautiful and well-formed flowers with excellent fragrances. Americans very much love the English garden rose- but please don't forget that Harkness is also a superb breeder of roses and produced Compassion, one of the most beautiful roses of all time. as well as Cardinal Hume an unbelievably wonderful cinnamon scented rose of perfect form and excellent vigor. Thank you for the video.

The colour of Lady Emma Hamilton is stunning, I don’t think I’ve ever seen it but it would go nicely with my colour scheme here :) Wolerton Old Halls looks a lovely climber, I hadn’t seen that one before! Desdemona I would definitely recommend! It’s nearly time for blooms :)

I have some David Austen roses that they no longer sell. They haven't died on me and I've never used sprays or chemicals on them. I do tolerate some black spot but it does not kill the plants. The only downside to his English roses, in my view, is that they don't last long in a vase but I see he has started selling some hybrid T roses which should do better in a vase.. I really wanted to get 'Jude the Obscure' but it's not sold anymore. My strongest growing disease resistant David Austen rose is Boscobel and I also have Margaret Merril which is beautiful and scented but not very prolific. The roses I still have that he no longer sells are: Abraham Darby, Evelyn and Brother Cadfael. Abraham Darby and Brother Cadfael produce a good few blooms that smell gorgeous. Early in the season Brother Cadfael's leaves start out dark red and Abraham Darby has green leaves with red edgings.

Wow, Jude the Obscur and Brother Cadfael are absolutely exquisite! My mum has spoken about BC, it must be beautiful but I’ve never seen it. That’s a really beautiful collection you have there, I never cut my roses really but it’s a very good point. I love Bascobel and have one in a pot, beautiful colour and scent. It really pops nicely and pairs with salvia beautifully. The most vigorous I have grown myself is Lady of Shalott , but hopefully to be bettered by two Lark Ascending I just bought for back of the border. Thanks for your comment , really appreciate. Stay tuned for more DA content this summer! Enjoy your beautiful (and increasingly rare) roses!!

I bought a David Austin Boscobel rose last summer and put it in a container and it bloomed beautifully. It has turned black this spring and I am really thinking it is dead. I am so sad, not sure what to do with it.

Oh no, that’s really sad! The only one I have killed was in a pot and I think it got too wet and rotted over the winter. Are the stems completely black?

I know they’re not cheap are they, but certainly over the life of the plant should hopefully give good value. One thing that does make them slightly cheaper is buying bare route roses rather than potted. Hope you enjoy your new plant!
