So What’s All the Hoopla Over David Austin Roses?

David Austin has been breeding beautiful roses for over 50 years.  He continues to successfully combine old rose form and fragrance with the color range and repeat blooming of modern roses.

He and his team start out with about 2500 seedling each year, and extensively test them for 8 years. The result is a selection of four to six magnificent roses that meet their exacting standards for fragrance and performance.  You can expect these roses to perform for years on end in your garden.

David Austin roses, often called English roses are usually very heavily petaled, always have fragrance, and are easy to grow given the proper cultural conditions. If you enjoy the look and fragrance of old fashion roses, be sure to look at our David Austin selections for 2013.

Decorate your yard with roses.

You don’t have to have a dedicated garden to enjoy your own roses.  Obviously roses can cover an arbor or trail along a fence, but have you considered filling your containers with roses? Many of them bloom as long  or longer than annuals.  Got a slope to cover? Why use boring junipers when you can enjoy the color of Drift roses.  Create privacy in your backyard with a hedge of large-growing David Austin roses. Tree roses make a wonderful show-stopping focal point that you don’t see in every garden while repeating groups of roses in different beds brings soothing continuity to your landscape.

Happy browsing, and thanks for keeping us in mind.

Hybrid Tea

Hybrid Teas and grandifloras have that classic rose form with heavy petal count 30-50. Flowers are single or in clusters atop long stems. Many varieties are fragrant, and make great cut flowers. These roses require more care than most other varieties of roses. Flowers usually produced in 6-7 week cycles.
