English Roses

Hybrids of old roses and modern roses bred by David Austin. These blend the best from both old and new, a mix of old rose shapes and scents with the repeat flowering, extended colour range and more compact habit of more modern varieties. Their increasing popularity is certainly a hallmark of success. Pruning Guide: Prune in second and subsequent years by removing any old dead or twiggy wood and reducing the remaining growths by one third of their length.
