These pictures will have to suffice for now – snapped today, quite beautiful, with buds that will carry on the show for weeks to come. I really do know quite a lot about them (David Austin all, save Jacques Cartier, a magpie in the nest, which is a true Old Rose) but may I refer you to their eponymous website – http://www.davidaustinroses.com
