Roses, the prime picks: Expert Gardener Michael Marriott reveals his favorite blooms
In the heart of England, renowned rose cultivator Michael Marriott and his partner Rosie Irving have been tending to a garden that holds a rich heritage and a promising future. Their garden, a testament to the continuation and evolution of David Austin's rose breeding, is home to a collection of newly discovered rose varieties.
These new additions, showcasing the charm and fragrance of historic roses combined with the vigor and resilience of modern hybrids, point to a future of sustainable, robust, and beautiful English roses that blend tradition with innovation.
One such rose is the 'Rambling Rector', a vigorous rambler with large, white, semi-double, fragrant flowers. This beauty grows to a size of 7m x 7m, making it a striking addition to any garden. After flowering, it produces small orange hips, adding a touch of autumnal charm.

The 'Rosa Mary Delany' is a repeat-flowering English climbing rose with soft-pink, semi-double flowers, growing to a size of 3.5m x 2m. For those who appreciate a more vibrant hue, 'Rosa Princess Anne' boasts deep-pink flowers that fade to a rich pink, growing to a size of 1.2m x 1m.
Last but not least, 'Rosa Buttercup' delights with its deliciously fragrant yellow flowers and grows to a size of 1.5m x 1.5m.
