    I will definitely be posting photos of my roses in their new half barrel homes.

    I’ve got Munstead Wood and Harlow Carr planted in January. I’m hoping for beautiful blooms and intense fragrance. 👃🏻🌹

    Eglantyne… I'm longing to see your 33 roses... and all the others from everyone else too... a single bloom, a whole bush, or just a leaf...  I don't care !...lol...

    I will post mine too, planted two today, more to go tomorrow. I've been spending hours every day in the garden, mostly doing hard landscaping, it's awesome to finally plant something.

    At the weekend I got and planted Munstead Wood and Sexy Rexy ( love the form of this)  using the discount I got with the David Austin Rose Handbook. :)

    I never heard of Sexy Rexy so I had to go look that up...  this is a good rose by all accounts and does well in a vase too... I'm sure you'll be delighted with it... I grow a similar pink variety called 'Octavia Hill'.. 


    edhelka… yes great to be outside, I think the weather has been kind to most of us lately.. look forward to seeing your roses...

    The Rose Handbook was great, beautiful roses and lots of information on how to care for them. 

    Lots of the roses were were sold out. Luckily they had my choices. 

    I was tempted by the Gabriel Oak too but resisted.  I will see how these go for me first perhaps.

    Rose Group? I'm in!

    I'll post pics of my Princess Alexandra of Kent, Mme A de Carriere, Shropshire Lad, Brother Cadfael, and my two new ones, Aloha and Blush Noisette. I too was tempted by Gabriel Oak, but didn't buy it... looking forward to see how the colour turns out for others...
