According to the David Austin Site:

A very refined yellow rose of great beauty and value – a superb example of the Leander Group at its best. The rosette-shaped flowers are particularly attractive. The centre petals are in the form of rich, deep yellow cups, while the outer petals fall back and fade to palest yellow providing a most pleasing two-tone effect. There is a lovely medium to strong tea rose fragrance. It is extremely healthy and repeat flowers well.

Named for Mr. Ulrich Meyer, after his wife Georgia – both are German media personalities.

According to the David Austin Site:

A variety of typical Old Rose beauty, bearing large, very full, deeply cupped flowers of soft glowing pink, gradually turning lilac-pink over time. They are held elegantly poised on the branches with the greyish-green foliage. There is a pleasing fragrance with a hint of myrrh. It will form a large shrub or can be trained as a short climber. David Austin, 2002.

Named for the Freedom Association which campaigns for the preservation and extension of freedom in Britain.

According to the David Austin Site:

Here is a variety of unusual colouring which is almost impossible to describe – a very deep, almost salmon-pink shade that changes with age to an intense red-pink. The deeply cupped flowers soon open to form slightly cupped rosettes. ‘Benjamin Britten’ is a useful rose to provide a highlight among the softer shades of most English Roses. The fragrance is intensely fruity, with aspects of wine and pear drops.

Named to commemorate the life of the popular English composer, conductor and performer. His compositions include large-scale symphonic scores, songs and choral works.

According to the David Austin Site:

‘Falstaff’ bears large, shallowly cupped blooms of rich, dark crimson, which eventually turn a wonderful shade of rich purple. They are of exquisite form and quality, packed with numerous petals which interfold at the centre. This helps to create a lovely, glowing effect within an enclosed saucer of outer petals. There is a powerful Old Rose fragrance.

…

Named for the well-loved Shakespearean character, who was the faithful companion of Prince Hal (the future Henry V).

According to the David Austin Site:

There are several dark red English Roses, but this is a lighter, brighter crimson, which is slow to fade, so it has long been a valuable addition to our collection. It is related to ‘Mary Rose’ and has many of that rose’s good garden qualities. The petals are loosely arranged to form beautiful, large, slightly cupped blooms that open wide and flat. Flowers are produced with remarkable continuity. There is little scent until the flower ages, when it develops a charming Old Rose fragrance.

Named after David Austin’s father-in-law, Leonard Dudley Braithwaite.
