In spring 2010, David Austin debuts five new English rose varieties for American gardens. Their bushy shrubs are bred for the garden and are suited to growing in garden beds and borders, in large pots and grouped in the landscape.
The five new English roses include: a velvety crimson English rose, ‘Munstead Wood’; ‘Princess Alexandra of Kent’ with unusually large pink deeply cupped roses; ‘Sir John Betjeman’ with colorful neat, bright pink rosettes; ‘Wisley 2008’ with semi-cupped, soft pink roses of exceptional grace and fragrance; and ‘Young Lycidas’ with a rich color blend of purplish magenta-pink-red, a first for Austin’s English Roses.
