David Austin Rose Review - Emily Bronte
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 авг 2024
- I think this is the case where everyone's environment, growing conditions and other factors can highly affect how your rose grows and how your rose performs. David Austin has Emily Bronte as one of their best for health as well as their best for fragrance. While I would agree that she is very healthy, I do not agree that she is one of the most fragrant. I have many more roses in my garden, and many other David Austin roses in my garden that I would list as more fragrant. That does not mean that I don't love having her in my garden.....not at all. She is covered in flowers, and the color is stunning. She is very healthy, has long stems which are great for cutting, and best of all she is healthy. I true joy in the rose garden!
Emily Bronte:
- 4ft tall by 3.5ft wide.
- 106 petals.
- Medium Leaves and dark green.
- Flowers are 3.5 inches or medium size.
- Cream white with apricot, peach and soift pink.

The best way to plant this rose is to purchase soil specifically for Roses. You can use the entire bag to fill up a container or amend your current ground soil with this. This is the product that I used:

While planting, it's a good idea to add some fertilizer for these plants to munch on because they have a lot of work to do. If you are planting a bare root rose then they have to first set new roots and then new leaves and flowers. Growing those beautiful roses is a lot of work and these plants are big feeders! You will also need to feed them every 14-21 days during the growing season. Feed your plants with this (Espoma Rose Fertilizer):
amzn.to/3PEiCnt
Do you have Aphids? This is my go-to spray for not only aphids but also Japanese Bettles, White Flies, Spider Mites, and other bugs that won't leave my beautiful roses alone!
amzn.to/3MT4nsO
A bare root rose will need to be soaked in water for a minimum of 2 hours, but it's best to let them soak for 5-6 6 before putting them into the ground.
When you plant a rose, plant it deep. Put the crown of the plant below the soil grade. It's always a good idea to have some mulch too because they like moist soil.
And, last but not least you will want to have some spray on hand that can kill bugs, aphids, white flys, etc. This Organic spray has Neem oil which you will want to spray every few weeks. This will also help with black spot and powder mildew. If you have ever grown a rose you know these take a bit of work, but are well worth all the love. This is my go-to rose spray:

Thank you for the video I do have one Emily Bronte 20 others and definitely Emily Bronte is the most scented flower very very strong strong scent
Hoping mine gets more fragrant in time. I do have mine in full California sun so that is the only thing I can think that might be zapping the smell....I dunno 😊
I agree with the scent. It`s on my top 1 David Austin roses.
I am perfectly happy with the scent as well. Growing it in the not so sunny Sweden. Bare root, first year. It outperformes alla other roses I have, Austin as well as others. A pleasent surprise. Hope yours will smell nice as well next year :)
I enjoy these reviews….keep them coming.
That’s great!!!
I just got Emily this year and I have had the same experience. Tons of growth on the plant itself, but only two measly blooms. Patiently waiting for next season! 🤞🏾
LOL...mine has gotten huge this summer almost touching the top of out 6 foot fence. Still not very fragrant though, but lots of blooms. She'll be worth the wait!
Thanks for the Review! I bought both Emily Bronte and Eustacia Vye this spring, so I´m looking forward to seeing the development this summer. I got 9 different bare-root roses in, most of them from David Austin.
Awesome! Roses are a bit of addiction.....I have both of them and love them!!!
Thank you for the review, thinking to get them both, now I know better what I want. Planting on zone 10a here.
Glad I could help!! She really is a beautiful roses and has a lot to offer so still give her a chance 😊
Nice!!!
Hi! Thanks for this great review of Emily Bronte. I don't have this rose, but I've heard from people who do this it does well in shade or partial shade, so anyone with a shady garden, this might be one to look out for!
Great point Belinda :0)
Nice Review
Thanks....stay tuned for more :0)
Wow she IS beautiful!
She is truly a gem in the garden!
Thanks for the review. I just planted one , a bareroot. I did not order Emily but another rose which is not available so they gave me Emily instead. With your review I'm at peace that it'll be okay.
You are going to love having her in the garden!!!
I planted an Emily Bronte last year, have to say the fragrance is divine.
I'm still hopeful that mine will begin to show it's fragrance. 🤞
Beautiful rose. Just ordered an own root from Heirloom Roses. I wonder if the growth habit of it will be more in line with what DA claims. I live in Texas zone 9B (updated by the USDA) so it will probably be bigger as we have long summers. 😅
I'm in California and we too have long hot summers too. In fact, it's sunny and nice on November 27th. From my experience, I think Emily hates the 90+ heat. By the end of summer, she was about 6ft tall. Lots of leggy growth. Desdemona is next to her and she did amazing in late summer into fall. In fact she has lots of flower as we speak! Spring Emily flowered amazingly with the rest of the year just okay. If you have the option to plant her in morning/early afternoon sun with the hot evening sun being in the shade this is where she will do best. I'm going to give her one more summer and I may think about moving her elsewhere in the garden. :0)
@@intheglenn thanks for the tips! 👍
@@intheglenn I also have Desdemona, she’s a baby right now maybe about a foot tall by about a foot wide. She was a potted 2 quart own root from DA.
My Emily Bronte is very fragrant after I had her for 3+ years. She was not as good before
Glad to hear....I am holding out hope!!!
I have this one and it’s been struggling in zone 9b Texas for me. Healthy but I think our heat/humidity may be too much. Others here in my area have said she is slow to bloom. Mine has yet to bloom.
Hey Keith.....Emily in my garden stuggles with the heat too. We are in the same zone so I'm guessing it is the heat. If you can move her to morning sun and afternoon shade I bet you'll have a better rose. For me, I do not have that option in the my garden :0( Best of luck!!!
Is this rose own root?
Same thing happened to me with Gentle Hermione…😅
No way!!! I dont have GH, but maybe someday I'll have her in my garden!
The fragrance may be enigmatic just like Emily. Ps. The portrait is of her eldest sister Charlotte and the book is Wuthering heights : a world classic.
Someday I'll check out the book and hopefully someday my EB is as fragrant as everyone else's.
Which rose has the best fragrance (not a traditional old rose scent though) in your opinion?
In my garden I LOVE Desdemona. It smells like lemons. Someone in the comments said baby powder.
Gertrude Jekyll seems to be the most popular opinion. ❤️
@@intheglenn oh but those are both old rose fragrances. What’s the best for fruity/honey/vanilla or such fragrances?
@@shahrokhnaqvi9613 Desdemona is very fruity and the scent of lemon is very strong. To me, it doesn't smell like an old fashion rose. I know DA has it listed as old fashion but I feel it's a bit different. I have the same sent from Gabriel Oak....very fruity. My neighbor has Golden Celebration in her front yard and that one punches you in the face with scent. To me it isn't old rose smell either. They call it tea. I see that it's still available in 2qt and should ship this month, so that might be your best option if you are looking for a rose right now.
@@intheglenn I totaly agree - I LOVE Desdemona too :) her fragrance is fantastic (as well as her flowers and she´s one of the best flowering roses in my garden too)! A fresh fragrance, hard to describe, but not old rose at all to me. I also love Boscobel (myrrh) and Lady of Shalott. You might like Munstead Wood too, I´ve heard people describe it as liquorice but to me it´s more fruity. I think we all perceive different smells so my advice is to try to smell as many roses as you can and see what you like - good luck :) And thank you Glenn for your review 🐞🌹
@@shivalilla2469 I don’t have any of those ones but I maybe someday 😊
I have for 2 years wasn’t doing too good I did replant in other location now doing very good But it looks like getting like vine rose😂 so I just don’t know anymore.
Does the Eustacia Vye have a strong fragrance?
I think they are so similar in growth, size, form, and scent. Both have a scent and it is nice but in my garden they are not overly fragrant.
@@intheglenn i've got them both and they are on pair with Munstead wood in terms of fragrance power. Considering you're in sunny California they might need a bit more watering and potash to get fragrant. I'm in England and they were fragrant from the first year so i'd really look at the food/watering situation to see if it's going to help.
@@vorong2ru Awesome....thank you so much for that information. I have them on regular water, but do let them dry out a bit. I fertilize monthly during the spring and summer with EB stone 5-6-3. Pot ash is in the mix. Do you think I should be feeding more? More potash?
@@intheglenn definitely! do you guys have the "tomato food" there in the US? It's smth like 1-5-10 so heavy potash and a decent amount of phosphorus with minimum nitrogen. You need smth like 10-5-5 during early spring when the plant gets the greenery out after the winter period and then you better switch to tomato food right when the first buds form. So you can try that. If it doesn't help - check the soil ph, make sure it's somewhere around 6-6.5. Again sometimes it takes a couple years for the rose to establish and get into full power. You've mentioned your Emily Bronte didn't bloom the first year while mine was blooming with at least 10 buds per flash in the first year so it could be just that your plant needs more time to settle in.
@@intheglenn and yeah, try to increase watering too, the more moisture in the roots zone - the higher amount of "oil" the flower will get. I'd try more water and more potash/phosphorus - if it doesn't help then just wait:)
Beautiful- first year - blooms - then twigs - contacted DA customer service for help and advice. Told me it was my fault for not potting it up soon enough. Not impressed.
I'm a huge DA fan, but their customer service is terrible.
@@intheglenn Shocked at their BLUNT response. Two roses, less than a year old. Wedding day and Emily Bronte. TWIGS. DA asked that I fill in a questionnaire, including date of purchase etc., and any rose feed ( which I purchased from them! ) We stand by our original decision, you didn’t pot it up soon enough.I love their roses, I am a HUGE fan, but clearly their loyal customers ( humble or otherwise ) mean nothing.Upsetting to be honest.
Just a note, by complete CONTRAST to David Austin, Garden Bargains, You Garden etc., now on QVC, treat their customers with respect. They appreciate your custom and loyalty. Replacement, refund, or ( more importantly) ADVICE offered immediately.
Eustacia Vye is a totally different rose, it is pink and coral and no comparison??!! Not sure how you can say they are the same
What I was referring to is the characteristics. Things like flower shape, thorns, the way they cut, growth patterns, etc. I have both and have vased both together. Believe me they are very very similar. I do realize the color is different.
@@intheglenn I disagree, my EV is very cupped and more compact. You should put them side by side for viewers. I just think your view is misleading.
Wow! Can't pronounce Bronte or Wuthering Heights? The state of education in America is obvious in every aspect of life. Sad
What’s really sad is the state of hate in this world. People are so quick to be negative, hateful and just awful.
You do realize education is not just one box you put it in. You obviously came here to learn about roses. There is a thing called specialty; one who specializes in a subject. This is not the Literature department. I’m quite certain you are deficient in at least one skill, most obviously, sociability which can be argued is more important than all the aforementioned.
@@SummerLove-yv1kf No semicolon after specialty. Each side of a semicolon should be a stand alone sentence. The second part of your sentence is a fragment. Sociability, not socialability
@@jcl5345 lololol I’m sure you’re a real charmer in person. Point proven.
Saw you on Insta. What’s up!!
