Following the sad passing of David Austin we’d like to pay tribute to this great innovator. In 1969 David had refined the crossbreeding process and launched his first range of repeat-flowering ‘English Roses’, the name he coined for his ground-breaking varieties that fused the old with the new.
He reasoned that the French have the Gallica roses, the Scottish the Scots, so why shouldn’t the English also have a group of roses to call their own ̶ especially with the rose being so intertwined in England’s culture and history.
We’d love to share some of your favourite David Austin Rose images on our Wall of Roses. Below are customers images of the first blooms of their roses they’ve purchased from us in 2017/18. So exciting to see these roses settled into their new homes bringing a splash of colour and fragrance for all who visit to enjoy.
If you’d like to share some of your David Austin Rose images taken in your own or a friends garden/patio please send them over to us via our Facebook page or send us an email: jardindelamaisonrose@email.com.
