2016 New Stock Roses
We’re adding roses to the new and re-released roses for 2016 section and we’re ready to take orders.(Right: Heidi's Wedding Rose)
Tranquility
Another great addition to the David Austin rose family. Slightly cupped, neatly placed petals open to perfect rosette shaped blooms. Slight tinges of yellow in the bud stage gently softening to pure white. We have found this to be bushy and upright in growth as with many of the newer English Roses and very thorn free. Lush green foliage with hints of apple perfume from the flowers. 1.3 m h x 1m wide
Wollerton Old Hall
Named after the famous garden in Shropshire, near David Austin’s nursery. A must visit if you are there. I know every garden says this but this is amazing as it’s a modern garden in the old style around a 16th Century black and white timber hall. Anyway, this vigorous bush/ climber has cupped shaped blooms that age to cream from soft apricot .It has one of the strongest perfumes of any of The Austin’s. A strong, bushy upright shrub to around 1.5 m or a climber to 3m. Great on arches and arbours as it is nearly thornless.
Gra's Blue
Another Australian Bred rose, which
is great to see. A compact grower, this roses exudes masses of perfume from its
violet/ mauve blooms. Lush, disease resistant foliage. Ideal border or edging
rose or for pots. Good cut flower and
highly perfumed. 80cm high.
Dark Desire
Beetroot /burgundy coloured blooms adorn this robust Hybrid tea. Masses of large Hybrid tea blooms with very intense perfume. Great cut flower. Grows 1.2m.
Little Wishes
A low
growing border/ hedging/ landscaping rose that is smothered with flowers from
spring to winter. Grows 80cm high x 1m wide. Rich purple double blooms with a
white eye centre, lush foliage and perfume. What more could you want. Perfect
for smaller gardens or pots or borders and edgings.

Well we all love Blue Moon the parent of this stunner but with lots more perfume than its Blue parent. Bright pink, large flowers with lush foliage and free flowering to 1.2m. Bound to be a hit with cut flower lovers. Order early!!
Twilight Zone
Rich purple blooms larger than Ebb Tide, strong perfume and over 40 petals per bloom, this is my pick of the sell-out favourites for 2016. I may be wrong but rarely am, so order early as this is bound to be oversold with the amount of orders we have already!! Robust, bushy growth, good disease resistance are some of its other attributes.
Fearless
From the same breeder as Twilight Zone, this intense orange is a welcome addition to the sparse range of good, truly orange roses !! Masses of blooms smother this bush. Lush foliage grows to 1.5m.

Another great addition to the series of roses with “Eyes” that have come about through modern breeding of older roses such as hulthemia/ persica shrub roses.

Perfumed blooms can be cut for a vase and grows around 90 x 90cm. Teamed up with “Eye of The Tiger” or “Eyes for You” would make a sensational display.

With All My Heart
Nothing says from your Heart more than a red rose ! And this long stemmed, hybrid tea is no exception with very long vase life and a slight perfume. Deep crimson red buds unfurl to rich red with scalloped edges. Good vase rose. Grows 1.4m high.
City of Perth - St Vincent de Paul
