https://www.trevorwhiteroses.co.uk/product-tag/new-additions/ TW offering The Prince and other old DA among their 2023 new additions. I quite fancy Sharifa Asma but that one only bare root later in the year. TP available potted now though apparently limited numbers. Therese Bugnet also appeals
I’d love to have Jude… if anyone’s got a rooted cutting, I’d happily buy it (for a reasonable price!) or I can swap for something. Out of discontinued DAs I’ve got LEH, MW and BBritten.
@Eustace You are in demand I guess... any plans of making few quid? I am also in line for JTO.. love that colour on Jayne Austin..
Good to know that a lot more are disappointed with the lack of fragrance on Austins.. as you guys mentioned it could be breeding for disease resistance rather than fragrance.. which is a shame.. equally disappointed with Harkness introductions as well.. Interestingly Peter Beales did not introduce any new ones...
Your Amazing day is early @WAMS mine is all fat buds but no flowers yet..
@Nollie you are lucky with lot of French/ Dutch breeders with fragrant blooms readily available in EU..
The new Harkness ones look good to me! I may be alone here in the admiration for the Menopause Charity rose(😁) but the picture of the new climber Sense and Sensibility, before it fully opens- that's my idea of beautiful.
I have heroically resisted a Trevor White order (tempting as The Prince was) because most of the bareroots I want (Cornelia, Soeur Emmanuelle) aren't in stock for some reason.
Ye @cooldoc- Amazing Day has had buds for (it seems) months, and it felt as though they'd never open, what with the cold and wet. A very welcome sight (and scent) this morning!
Looking at TW roses, I am almost considering giving a second chance to Poulsen's Renaissance rose. Quite a lot of them are very fragrant and TW gives them a good or excellent health rating. I used to have Ghita/Millie/Mum in a Million, it was a delightful rose. Not the strongest grower for me but very fragrant.

Beales have the usual 2 new ones... Neither appeal to me ..
