The Roald Dahl Rose is a delightful English shrub rose from David Austin, cherished for its beautiful apricot blooms and fruity Tea fragrance. The flowers are rosette-shaped with a soft orange hue that fades gracefully, creating a warm and inviting display throughout the growing season.

This rose is known for its compact, bushy growth, reaching about 4 feet tall and wide, making it ideal for garden borders, containers, or small garden spaces. Its exceptional disease resistance and hardiness make it well-suited to Zones 5 and above, though it may survive in sheltered Zone 4 locations with added winter protection.

The Roald Dahl blooms continuously from late spring to autumn, with each bloom filled with petal-packed charm. Named in honour of the beloved author and released during the centenary celebration of his birth, this rose is perfect for anyone looking to add a hint of literary inspiration and warmth to their garden.

Large & Healthy, Will Buy Again.

I ordered one Roald Dahl and one Double Ambre, both arrived to the industry standard of 2+ canes of pencil thickness or larger. Some minor pruning was necessary as is standard procedure with bare roots.

Both roses have been happy and developing well since being soaked for 4-8 hours upon arrival and followed by temporary potting in large planters until later this year.

Overall, I'm very happy with the quality of bare roots I received and look forward to seeing them in bloom in another few weeks along the same timeline with my well established roses.

Although the cost for shipping initially caught me off guard, the individual price for the rose quality, size, and available selection was fair.

I will be purchasing from them again in future and have already recommended them to several friends.
