David Austin has made a huge contribution to rose breeding in developing his superb range of 'English Roses' selected to combine the evocative character of old rose varieties with qualities of fragrance, long-flowering, and disease resistance.
There are just 2 rooms left on The English Rose garden tour in June led by rosarian Michael Marriott who will introduce David Austin's nursery and private collection as well as many other superb gardens of Shropshire & Worcestershire.
