For spring of 2011, David Austin Roses will offer five new varieties. They are beautifully suited to use as long-flowering landscape shrubs, as climbing roses or in beds, borders or large pots.
The five new English Roses are: pure-white Susan Williams-Ellis, white species-look Kew Gardens, apricot Lady of Shalott, rose-pink The Wedgwood Rose and deep-cerise Tam o' Shanter.
“These special roses represent our newest and best breeding,” said David JC Austin, managing director of David Austin Roses and son of breeder David CH Austin. “This year's collection includes one of my personal favorites, Lady of Shalott, and a white sport of one of my father's favorite roses, which we have named after a dear family friend, Susan Williams-Ellis.”
