David Austen was your uncle?! This is like horticultural royalty! Those roses all look beautiful - I'm in Wales, on rich clay, and the roses love it. If we have a hot, light summer, they are a triumph, even if I say so myself. On the downside it is often damp and drizzly here too, so we get the usual rose diseases and balling etc. Still I would never be without them. One of my favourites is rosemoor - so dinky and fragrant.
This is the MOST OUTSTANDING TUTORIAL ON ROSES. IT IS A “ CLASSIC “. My favorite and a true reference on all desirable roses 🌹. A Keepsake!!!!! Thank You for putting this before us. Another one of your videos to refer to again & again.
Not a problem for me as I grow about 10 old shrub roses and although they only flower once the give me a good two months of blooms by which time up pops something new.
Oh! I had no idea David Austin was your uncle, Bunny. I have a Claire Austin, and two William Shakespeare Austin roses. I used to have half-standard (called Patio Tree Roses here in S. California) roses in terracotta pots along one side of my deck, when I had a 2,500 sq. ft. lot. Now I have space, but clay soil, so I still grow roses in pots, usually large resin containers. I fell in love with Old Garden roses, and have added Reine des Violettes, Blush Noisette, Apothocary rose, and cabbage rose to my hybrid teas. The company grows them self-rooted, so no suckers. I'm intrigued by your ramblers at the forest edge. Your videos are so inspiring!
For this old girl who is new to Roses, even tho I have only one that I bought some 16 yrs ago, it is divine. I'm in the states on Maryland's eastern shore, heavy tan clay soil. I wasn't a tag saver back then either, so to confirm my thinking that this one is the David Austin Rose Penelope, I have order her to see if I'm right. If I'm wrong who cares, another beautiful Rose in the garden is fine by me. Thanks for putting this together, seeing the whole gambit in one sitting was wonderful.
One of the things I love about Bunny’s garden is that so many items have a story behind them, a place where the cuttings were made.I was Markos last time we met.
Roses are my favorite too! In FL they can be fussy with the humidity but mine are doing well by under planting with salvias. My DA’s struggle compared to my Kordes’. My first year Ballerina has already put out a few blooms! Cannot get enough of roses! Love your channel! Xoxo from FL
Great advice. I don’t recognize too many of those except for DA’s and Pomanella which I just saw in a public garden in West Hartford CT US called Elizabeth Park. Very interesting shape to the rose. Like mini peonies. My favorite roses I have to say are from Kordes. So flawless Here in New England we are so humid that DA start off great in spring but when summer hits they get black spot. Proven Winners OSO easy, Easy Elegance roses and Knockout roses do well for us without any spraying
Yellow Submarine by Easy elegance performs so well here in the hot & humid South. 100 degree plus temps. It smells devine. Any rose is perfect for me as long as it does not need pampering after the 1st year of lots of water. Yellow Submarine is perfect for me.
I'm outside of Melbourne Aust, and have just bought - again, for a new garden - a David Austin call "Ambridge" - it flowers almost continuously from Spring to the end of autumn, and has a beautiful perfume, along with pinky apricot flowers. Thanks for your recommendations!
@@elizabethbishara3223 - where did you get your Pierre de Ronsard? I had one on order for ages at Waiere Nursery and then they told me they had no more stock. I so want to get that rose.
@@jacintabyline I ordered from Tasman Bay Roses, but I ordered it about February or March. I had to wait a whole year as I missed out last year. Highly recommend TBR.
I live in Colorado and some of my favourites include David Austin's Abraham Darby, Kordes bred Dortmund, York and Lancaster, Felicia, the white Meidiland, Iceberg shrub, Canadian Winnipeg Park and climbing Victorian Memory. They are all hardy, reliable, disease resistant and most are very fragrant.
@@bunnyguinness I moved to Georgia from Southern California. Brought all of my roses bareroot! They all bloomed beautifully this spring, then got black spot. I’ve done everything, cleaned underneath the rose. Just so disheartening. Any secret you may have? Someone said cornmeal. Any thought I would appreciate?
@@clannadgirl46 "A Cornell University researcher demonstrated that a mixture developed for powdery mildew-1 tablespoon of baking soda mixed in a gallon of water, with a bit of horticultural oil or liquid soap added to help it cling to the leaves-is also effective for reducing the spread of black spot."
I love your excellent postsBunny, I am in Melbourne Australia and my mother loved roses so much my middle name is Rose, so I have many in the garden. Love them all!
Thank you Bunny, your my favorite! I have just this year planted 3 knock out roses, which I don’t know if that is the same as a regular rose….but in spring I am going to get a real shrub rose….And maybe a climbing rose. They are wonderful in your garden, you have a beautiful home.
Oh, Please try Yellow Submarine. It performs better or as well as a Knockout but actually smells amazing. Its a shrub rose. Its sold by Easy Elegance & its only $25 for a huge 3 gallon pot on Amazon. It may just be the perfect rose. Knockouts don't have great if any fragrance. The blooms can be small. They have their place. I have many but I do regret growing so many. There are hundred others that grow just as well, disease resistant, etc but truly look like a big beautiful old rose with fragrance & same price or less than a Knockout & you'll be a bit less common & people will ask you what it is. Enjoy gardening! :-)
What better way for an Australian to learn about roses than to sit at the feet of England's finest rose, Bunny. Thank you so much for making this video. I do not have a lot of rose experience but am captured by your passion, so forward I must go. The roses I most remember in Australia are the ones grown to bloom at a specific time e.g. Melbourne Cup Horse Race. My favorite colored rose is yellow and my wife has a passion for red. Perhaps you can suggest a rose that would bring harmony to this seemingly diverse couple who are so much in love. Thank you Bunny!
If your after an amazing golden yellow rose I highly recommend David Austin’s Golden Celebration, I’m in Tasmania, we get frost and quite a bit of rain but this rise has flourished beyond expectations, it is growing in front and along my verandah and it flowers in Oct/Nov them again in February
So beautiful! Can you put the names to all the roses you speak of? I love the red roses you showed quickly and the maroon roses at the end. I didn’t catch the name with your accent. Thank you!
Here are the names some of the roses she mentioned. James L Austin Rose Sally Holmes Rose Madame Alfred Carrier Rose Pearl Drift Rose Bengal Beauty Rose Raubritter Rose Pomponella Rose Mutabillis Rose
An interesting and thought provoking selection. I agree that Ferdinand Pichard is the best striped rose (Commandant Beaurepaire is a close second, but too leggy in our garden). For scent, I would choose Mme Isaac Pereire (even though she is a martyr to blackspot) and the much more healthy rugosa Blanc Double de Coulbert. I've just added Sandringham (bred by the late Peter Beales) and Captain Christy, as short climbers, and Lovely Parfuma (a.k.a. Rosengrafin Marie Henriette / Mme de Montespan, bred by Kordes).
Because the roses are mixed up with other plants I don’t seem to get too many and have never sprayed them. Uncle Toms rose tonic is brilliant for many fungal problems though.🐇
I have an old Noisette rose called Gloria de Jion which is apricot yellow with double flowers. It is very fragrant with repeats blooms and grows in part shade. 15 feet tall. It is one of the parents of English rose, Evelyn! Clematis Multi-blue looks fabulous with it.
I’m in Georgia! We didn’t have them in California. I put Milky spore in around my roses in January and sprayed nematodes in March. Going to spray nematodes again this fall. They are microscopic worms that eat the grubs that hatch into Japanese beetles. This year we have had only a handful.
I'm in Canada and loved this video. I just bought a rose called "British Garden" on it's tag, but for the life of me cannot find any information on it. Have you heard of this rose? Underneath it says English garden rose.
I think maybe it is a shrub rose bred by David Austin called ‘English Garden’. Has it got apricot yellow fragrant flowers that repeat and does it grow around 1m high? So often plants are misnamed which is irritating!🐇
@@bunnyguinness it has a photo on container and I took a photo of the tag and did a reverse photo lookup and it came up as "Mary Rose" The photo shows a pink rose. I guess time will tell once it blooms :)
thank you for posting this. I took the plunge last year and planted three rose beds and 15 climbers, the majority David Austins. They've all grown really well but sadly missing the wonderful scents that people talk about. Mme Isaac Perriere, Desdemona and GJ haven't disappointed though, very fragrant. Can I ask your advice. I'm a bit stumpedf as to how to deadhead boscobel to encourage new flushes. It will produce a many stemmed cluster of a dozen or more flowers from one very upright 18 inch shoot. So I've let my entire cluster flower and deadheaded them as they faded and now the lot have been removed. Following the main stem of the cluster down the bush and looking for a 5 leaf junction to prune to I'm about 8inches off the ground before I find one. Seems pretty drastic to me to lop off about 18 inches of abundant growth. None of the above junctions on the cluster have a five leaf node ? To confuse me even more some of the stems on the cluster have begun sending growth shoots, Crown Princess Margareta does something similar, lots of stems on a cluster and new shoots emerging from cluster nodes before the whole cluster has been deadheaded. Do you have any advice ?
I checked this out with Michael Marriott, the Rosarian who worked with David Austin for many years and is now a consultant, he said ‘going down to five leaves works for some roses not all. Some roses do start shooting again from within the old flowering head and will quite soon produce more flowers so I would just tidy up the head removing the flower stalks but not cutting off any new hound shoots. Similarly with Crown Princess Margareta. ‘ Hope that helps. With respect to scent when the shrubs get larger they will produce more flowers and so the perfume levels increase. Even something really perfumed like Daphne has relatively little perfume when small but a large older shrub just knocks you out with the scent.🐇
That is very kind of you to take the trouble to give me such helpful advice. Yes indeed CPM does the same thing and I couldn't work out where to deadhead it . And I'm more encouraged now to wait for their 2nd year and hopefully more scent. I really enjoy you posts, thanks agin from soggy Ireland
Could you tell me the name of the very pale pink that you had in your entry to this video. I so love that pale pink color. Thank you so much for the video. I agree....horticultural royalty!
Dear Bunny, I really am grateful to you for all the information you give in all your videos. It's absolutely priceless! This video is very timely for me as I was wanting to take a rose cutting from a neighbour's garden that has GLORIOUS SCENT. Unfortunately, she doesn't know the name of it. The colour is similar to the one you are sitting next to in this video Please would you be able to confirm the name of the pink rose that you have beside you in this video? Many many thanks, Susan
This is one of the Wharton’s roses, they are The Home Florist range bred specially for cutting. There is Timeless Pink and TimelessCharisma behind it. Have a look at the Wharton’s website. They are fabulous for cutting as they keep flowering, last ages in water and have longish stems. 🐇
@BunnyGuinness recently discovered your channel; I love it! As an avid gardener and designer one of my keen interests is roses so wanted to thank you for your particular insight in this area. One of my favourite roses to use is Rosa 'Blanc Double d'Colbert' and was happy to see it in your list. I did have an observation/question with regard to the specimen you showed in the video - in my experience 'Blanc Double d'Colbert' is a sterile variety of Rosa rugosa, having loads of pollen but the hips do not form; the seeds/fruit abort. Could your specimens actually be Rosa rugosa 'Alba Semi-plena'? In my experience this variety does form sizable and plentiful hips.
Hi bunny. I’ve no idea if you will see this message but your timeless collection of roses you say was bred by Wharton’s but when I look online it says Noack as the breeder. As far as I’m aware a German rose breeder who appear to have many ADR award winning roses. Could you please shed a little light if your aware. Many thanks and I love your channel.
@@bunnyguinness thanks bunny. How many flushes do you see from this collection?. I have planted mine but a change in my hoped for space means I may have some decisions to make. Thanks Bunny
I have seen a few I like but I think they can look a bit municipal when grown as a hedge. When we did the planting at Thyme in the video on The Oxbarn Garden you can see a lot of the planting was in lines, including the roses Eg Rosa James Austin. I suppose these are rose hedges and I think they work really well in that context. So I contradicting myself a bit🐇

I think the pink rose given to you by John Cushney is the hybrid musk Felicia she is a large fragrant shrub I have it and it can be grown as a climber I got mine from David Austin roses
Hello Bunny, I have been trying to find a UK supplier of the Pomponella rose, but unfortunately I cannot find a supplier, can you recommend where I can purchase this beautiful rose.
No for all my gardens we buy roses in, but around 10% of my roses are on their own roots. Of the two Phyllis Bide I bought for either side of the kitchen doors, one died so the other one is a cutting from its mate that survived. I was surprised how quickly it caught up. 🐇
Yes a globe artichoke. Now they are looking great in Feb, lots of fresh basal foliage. They look manky very briefly at the end of summer here, I cut down the flowering stems and then almost immediately they send up fresh basal foliage which stays all through the winter. Maybe in colder, wetter areas this might not be the case🐇
Many roses are grafted onto a hardy rootstock which results in healthier rose shrubs.... as much as roses are the nations favourite they have fallen out of fashion in recent years ...I would implore everyone to support their roses nurseries. In the UK a number of rose breeders have hung up their boots, inc Colin Dickson recently who bowed out with another Rose of the Year winner 'It's a wonderful life' a florabunda which apparently has a Watermelon scent.... my order will be in for bareroot stock. One of my own favourites is Scent of Heaven which has a divine scent ROTY winner 2017. The list provided by Bunny is biased towards poor soil ..most rose lovers go to the ends of the earth to give their roses the best soil to thrive.
The idea that roses perform best when grafted is being challenged, especially in the USA where studies are showing that grafted roses have a significantly shorter lifespan, declining rapidly from about year 10 whereas own-root roses can be very long-lived. That includes David Austin roses where you can order own-root varieties in the USA. I'm in Australia and I am trying to get as many varieties onto their own-roots. Another problem we have in Australia is that all the commercial rose growers are budding onto rose mosaic virus infected root-stock but that's a whole other can of worms.
@@jjjddd231 Thanks for the comment, just researched a little (Fraser Valley and Gardeningknowhow are my first go-to reference guides for me) and yes it appears that the concept of grafting was to allow mass markets to be reached regardless of soil type along with a few other benefits. The variable weather is another big issue effecting our plants ..this years periodically strong rainfall and unseasonally strong winds as well as high humidity has resulted in my roses suffering from mildew and blackspot. The warmer start to the year are also effecting the time to prune roses. Testing times for us gardeners ... let's hope our governments start work faster at going green. Be well.
As I understand it roses are grafted in UK as they can produce point of sale plants quicker, they are not necessarily stronger. In Warmer climates eg California they can quickly produce roses by cuttings and so the preference is for roses on their own roots. There seems to be a shortage of roses this autumn so worth getting orders in early 🐇
@@bunnyguinness The thing to know is that own root roses may like the same type of soil as grafted or they may not. French bred roses often like drier loose soil, while German bred tend to like wetter acid soil, David Austin own root like what the are bred from and that often takes a little digging to figure out. Own root generally do better with a longer life, but not always, and some roses from around WWII -1950's are just such week growers that they need the root stock vigor.
@@annebeck2208 many thanks for those nuggets of information. In ignorance I tend to take cuttings and just see how well they do, but I will now bear what you say in mind.
Lovely roses - but you have to take more than the soil into consideration. When I started my garden nearly 40 years ago, I planted a number of David Austin roses, but none of them did well. The reason - the climate. Summer temperatures get too hot for them. And now, of course, even hotter.
To be honest I don’t, if I have a rose that suffers from it badly I remove it. Some say growing salvias with roses due to the level of sulphur helps but this has not been proven 🐇
RIP David Austin. You have greatly enhanced my life here on Earth.
David Austen was your uncle?! This is like horticultural royalty! Those roses all look beautiful - I'm in Wales, on rich clay, and the roses love it. If we have a hot, light summer, they are a triumph, even if I say so myself. On the downside it is often damp and drizzly here too, so we get the usual rose diseases and balling etc. Still I would never be without them.
One of my favourites is rosemoor - so dinky and fragrant.

I grow the beautiful damask rose Charles de Mills on shallow soil and have never had any problems with it. It's a winner for me.
Fabulous rose I agree, but once flowering and did not thrive with me. 🐇

What about black spot, does it attach those roses. We have Japanese beetles which are not found in the Uk.
You do get a bit now and again especially on Munstead Wood, but generally not too bad. 🐇
Beautiful
Are there any roses that do not need dead heading?
Fabulous, really helpful information. Thank you.
The beautiful rose looks like Cecile Brunner Rose to me. The Rose you collect ed a cutting from your friend who passed on.
Great information, so helpful.👍🤗

Because the roses are mixed up with other plants I don’t seem to get too many and have never sprayed them. Uncle Toms rose tonic is brilliant for many fungal problems though.🐇
What a lovely video.
Another long flowering less used clematis is viticella Betty Corning. Flowers for months a silver purple hooded flower that is scented

That is very kind of you to take the trouble to give me such helpful advice. Yes indeed CPM does the same thing and I couldn't work out where to deadhead it . And I'm more encouraged now to wait for their 2nd year and hopefully more scent. I really enjoy you posts, thanks agin from soggy Ireland
BTW, what's a 'hound' shoot ?
Sorry typo! Not cutting off any young shoots should have said this.
Lol, got you, thanks again
Could you tell me the name of the very pale pink that you had in your entry to this video. I so love that pale pink color. Thank you so much for the video. I agree....horticultural royalty!
Very woody Old Girl, Bunny Guiness!
Dear Bunny, I really am grateful to you for all the information you give in all your videos. It's absolutely priceless! This video is very timely for me as I was wanting to take a rose cutting from a neighbour's garden that has GLORIOUS SCENT. Unfortunately, she doesn't know the name of it. The colour is similar to the one you are sitting next to in this video Please would you be able to confirm the name of the pink rose that you have beside you in this video? Many many thanks, Susan
This is one of the Wharton’s roses, they are The Home Florist range bred specially for cutting. There is Timeless Pink and TimelessCharisma behind it.
Have a look at the Wharton’s website. They are fabulous for cutting as they keep flowering, last ages in water and have longish stems. 🐇
2:23 why do u bury the white box together with ur rose? Thanks
Can anyone name the rose at 20:22? The one that is drooping down. I would love to mix that color in with things I have.
@BunnyGuinness recently discovered your channel; I love it! As an avid gardener and designer one of my keen interests is roses so wanted to thank you for your particular insight in this area. One of my favourite roses to use is Rosa 'Blanc Double d'Colbert' and was happy to see it in your list. I did have an observation/question with regard to the specimen you showed in the video - in my experience 'Blanc Double d'Colbert' is a sterile variety of Rosa rugosa, having loads of pollen but the hips do not form; the seeds/fruit abort. Could your specimens actually be Rosa rugosa 'Alba Semi-plena'? In my experience this variety does form sizable and plentiful hips.
Oh interesting will check many thanks 🐇
Your unknow rose you grew from a cutting from Johs rose - looks very much like Francois Juranville
素晴らしい!
wonderful !
Hi bunny. I’ve no idea if you will see this message but your timeless collection of roses you say was bred by Wharton’s but when I look online it says Noack as the breeder. As far as I’m aware a German rose breeder who appear to have many ADR award winning roses. Could you please shed a little light if your aware. Many thanks and I love your channel.
Hi thanks for this, I’ll contact Whartons and check if I have got it wrong 🙃
Hi thanks for flagging this up,you are correct Noack was the breeder but Whartons sell it here. 🐇
@@bunnyguinness thanks bunny. How many flushes do you see from this collection?. I have planted mine but a change in my hoped for space means I may have some decisions to make. Thanks Bunny
I love all roses really! The smell of roses is really the only fragrance im not allergic to!
I would have liked to hear your view on hedge roses.
I have seen a few I like but I think they can look a bit municipal when grown as a hedge. When we did the planting at Thyme in the video on The Oxbarn Garden you can see a lot of the planting was in lines, including the roses Eg Rosa James Austin. I suppose these are rose hedges and I think they work really well in that context. So I contradicting myself a bit🐇

I think the pink rose given to you by John Cushney is the hybrid musk Felicia she is a large fragrant shrub I have it and it can be grown as a climber I got mine from David Austin roses
No don’t think so I grow that elsewhere, it’s similar but not the same. Felicia is a really good doer though and flowers for ages 🐇
Great video! What is the name of the rose featured in the video clip? Also, one can't be sure, but your beautiful pink climber looks like,
How do you deal with pests in the garden ie. aphids ?
Perhaps the pink climbing rose from your friend's garden is Champney's Pink Cluster.
Oh thanks, it does look quite similar - I’ll inspect it more closely tomorrow.🐇
Hello Bunny, I have been trying to find a UK supplier of the Pomponella rose, but unfortunately I cannot find a supplier, can you recommend where I can purchase this beautiful rose.
I got mine from Robert Mattocks, some years ago now though hope is helpful 🐇
@@bunnyguinness Thank you Bunny
Do you get black spot? If so how do you deal with it ?
Do you grow all of your cuttings on their own roots?
No for all my gardens we buy roses in, but around 10% of my roses are on their own roots. Of the two Phyllis Bide I bought for either side of the kitchen doors, one died so the other one is a cutting from its mate that survived. I was surprised how quickly it caught up. 🐇
Bunny, what is the plant behind you as you are sitting at the beginning of the video? Is it an artichoke? Thank you.
Yes a globe artichoke. Now they are looking great in Feb, lots of fresh basal foliage. They look manky very briefly at the end of summer here, I cut down the flowering stems and then almost immediately they send up fresh basal foliage which stays all through the winter. Maybe in colder, wetter areas this might not be the case🐇
@@bunnyguinness thank you. It's such an interesting plant. I might try it.
Many roses are grafted onto a hardy rootstock which results in healthier rose shrubs.... as much as roses are the nations favourite they have fallen out of fashion in recent years ...I would implore everyone to support their roses nurseries. In the UK a number of rose breeders have hung up their boots, inc Colin Dickson recently who bowed out with another Rose of the Year winner 'It's a wonderful life' a florabunda which apparently has a Watermelon scent.... my order will be in for bareroot stock. One of my own favourites is Scent of Heaven which has a divine scent ROTY winner 2017. The list provided by Bunny is biased towards poor soil ..most rose lovers go to the ends of the earth to give their roses the best soil to thrive.
The idea that roses perform best when grafted is being challenged, especially in the USA where studies are showing that grafted roses have a significantly shorter lifespan, declining rapidly from about year 10 whereas own-root roses can be very long-lived. That includes David Austin roses where you can order own-root varieties in the USA. I'm in Australia and I am trying to get as many varieties onto their own-roots. Another problem we have in Australia is that all the commercial rose growers are budding onto rose mosaic virus infected root-stock but that's a whole other can of worms.
@@jjjddd231 Thanks for the comment, just researched a little (Fraser Valley and Gardeningknowhow are my first go-to reference guides for me) and yes it appears that the concept of grafting was to allow mass markets to be reached regardless of soil type along with a few other benefits. The variable weather is another big issue effecting our plants ..this years periodically strong rainfall and unseasonally strong winds as well as high humidity has resulted in my roses suffering from mildew and blackspot. The warmer start to the year are also effecting the time to prune roses. Testing times for us gardeners ... let's hope our governments start work faster at going green. Be well.
As I understand it roses are grafted in UK as they can produce point of sale plants quicker, they are not necessarily stronger. In Warmer climates eg California they can quickly produce roses by cuttings and so the preference is for roses on their own roots. There seems to be a shortage of roses this autumn so worth getting orders in early 🐇
@@bunnyguinness The thing to know is that own root roses may like the same type of soil as grafted or they may not. French bred roses often like drier loose soil, while German bred tend to like wetter acid soil, David Austin own root like what the are bred from and that often takes a little digging to figure out. Own root generally do better with a longer life, but not always, and some roses from around WWII -1950's are just such week growers that they need the root stock vigor.
@@annebeck2208 many thanks for those nuggets of information. In ignorance I tend to take cuttings and just see how well they do, but I will now bear what you say in mind.
What is the best rose plant for florida
So do you just buy one rose, and then use cuttings from it to get a multitude?
It depends I sometimes buy them all, sometimes take cuttings.🐇
There are some disease-resistant repeat-flowering ramblers such as Super Excelsa, Super Dorothy, Perennial Blue, Libertas, Jasmina.
Thanks will checkout 😊
There is a yellow 'Mutabilis,' so perhaps that's what you got instead of the more traditional tri-color variety.
Lovely roses - but you have to take more than the soil into consideration. When I started my garden nearly 40 years ago, I planted a number of David Austin roses, but none of them did well. The reason - the climate. Summer temperatures get too hot for them. And now, of course, even hotter.
Can you buy Timeless roses in the US?
I can’t find Pompanella rose in the USA
Could you, please, repeat the name of the long-flowering clematis?
Clematis x durandii
just googled and it purple ??
@@MrDennisdavey Depends on the soil? In my garden it's blue. It is a non-clinger so bear that in mind if you're purchasing it.
@@convinth thanks
@@kaymgee08 Thank you!
How do you treat black spots?
To be honest I don’t, if I have a rose that suffers from it badly I remove it. Some say growing salvias with roses due to the level of sulphur helps but this has not been proven 🐇
@@bunnyguinness thank you
Is constance rose a climbing rose?
Yes
I am from Brazil,you sell rose seeds rose la france?
wowww...david austin is your uncle
Could you spell the clematis that you said was the longest blooming clematis. It wasnt put on the screen
I like to buy the perfuming. Roses the old English one
Roses name？please
