GETTING TO LIKE YOU DAVID AUSTIN'S ENGLISH ROSES

摘要

This is the third installment in a series of four articles about David Austin's English Roses. In the first two articles, we learned about the man who created them, his intentions for them, what distinguishes his roses from others and the developmentof David Austin English Roses in England. The world of roses is changing now, and I expect that we will see many more English Roses (or roses in that style) in the future. 1 hope this series of articles will prove valuable in these changing times. In this part, we will discuss what rosarians in the U.S. who are interested in English Roses should and shouldn't do. If you are developing an interest in English Roses, the first thing you should consider is how to incorporate them into your garden design; that is, where do they belong in a home garden and how should you space them? We tend to plant and train modern roses (i.e.. hybrid teas, etc.) to grow upright and, most commonly, each plant stands alone. English Roses are very versatile in a garden plan.Presently, 1 grow them for review in 15-gallon pots set pot-to-pot away from other shrubs.
