I've grown one is nice is a shrub rose a david austin rose gets like3x3 is a repeat bloomer though think it repeated later in season.has like pinkish apricot blooms has lots of petals probably a 45 ct or higher.has a sweet smell to rose.is an old english type rose.I grew her in a wine barrel.so groundwise could not tell you much .shes one of those I wish i had moved with but was a fool and took out of barrel for a HT so could move HT(somebody should beat me with a rose bush for that move) I liked the flowrs cause were sometimes diferent sometimes a yellow color or times a pink color and reminded me of a double rose ws so full.it was an easy to care for rose gave me no problems.I liked sitting by it drinking orange tea.they smelled good together

Thanks for the tip. I recently planted two in my garden but was then told David Austin stopped creating this rose because it was so susceptible to disease. I really love it but I was concerned that maybe it would succumb to some problem. So far they are both blooming beautifully and I am ecstatic about this. I must try the orange tea idea. Thanks again.
