Hi Ben, I love pink its just so beautiful. My favourite pink is Scepter'd Isle rose first year in my garden and it is always blooming, some stems with 12+ buds and the scent is amazing. If I had to pick one rose for my garden she has won my heart

Thank you for this, I was one of the people who asked for this comparison, so a big thank you from me. I thought I read (or did I just dream it) that you were going to do a comparison list of your recommendations for David Austin roses for containers / pots. I haven't seen it, so I'm suspecting it was just my wishful thinking ... but were you?

We don't seem to get all the varieties here in Australia. I keep seeing beautiful photos and videos of Lady Emma Hamilton I think it is called and saw Austin has cancelled it and as far as I know it never even got released here. Why cancel such gorgeous roses? When I asked them they said lady of shallot is similar. Photos I have seen show two totally different depths of colour so I'm now wondering how good the Austin staffs understanding of colour is if they think shallot is practically the same as Hamilton. I find it strange that they have so many other roses in say pink or yellow that are close in colour yet cancel the gorgeous Hamilton.

The reasons for retirement vary the official line is that the right he’s no longer perform well in our changing climate, which is not true in my personal growing experience, it’s more down to copyright each rows when it’s launched is given a Latin name and a commercial copy written name once the copyright expires. David Austin need to make the decision whether the rose is worth spending more money protecting the copy written nine, all allowing it to be grown by other people on the Licence using its Latin name. Which is why I now include the Latin name in most of my posts

@the_gardenerben Yes. I wish they would be a little more transparent about this, to be honest, and not take the "not up to scratch" line. I've had clients who are rose obsessed suddenly panic that they ought to get rid of something which is quite happy because "DA says it's not happy anymore," despite visual, OBVIOUS evidence that said rose doesn't read the website and would stick two fingers up if it did. I did get Lady Emma Hamilton out of one such event though😂! Great reviews, by the way. I love the fact you so frequently reference Tottering By Gently, which is one of my all time top three: I love her simplicity, ability to stand up to the damp (and, in my case, super windy) SW UK, her hips, the pollinators, and how beautifully she glows at dusk. Thank you very much.

I planted Eustacia Vye in a pot from bare root last winter. It grew and flowered well early summer but it has since sat almost dormant. No new foliage for the last two months. Is this normal? Is there going to be a growth spurt soon?
