| Came across this EXQUISITE rose reviewing my England photos from last year. Does anyone grow this? Wonder what it would look like in my climate? It was breathtaking there! |

| I got it last year. Like it a lot - I didn't let it bloom last year, wanted it to work on growing roots. This year, it leafed out beautifully and had blooms all over it. I cut it back a couple of weeks ago - it is now leafing out again and has a few blooms. I think this one may become a one of my favorite Austins. Judith |

| Thanks Judith. Does it look similar to the photo I shared? Susan |

| It does indeed. I have mine planted in the same area as Charles Rennie McIntosh and Ambridge Rose - Princess Anne has healthier foliage, is an all around healthier plant. I think when this one gets some age on it, it will be quite tough and free flowering. Another one I like is Englands Rose - same kind of healthy foliage - its a smaller rose, and I am trying to get the roots growing so don't let it bloom as much as it would like. Don't hear much about it, but it does well for me. Judith |

| Fantastic! I'm seriously considering replacing a cutting bed with an Austin bed. Do you grow any Austin's that are good for cut flowers? Susan |
