According to the David Austin Site:

Bears small clusters of medium-sized, pure rose pink, cupped rosettes. The blooms are of superb quality, looking beautiful at all stages. As they age, their petals gradually pale at the edges and they eventually expose glimpses of yellow stamens. There is a strong, delicious myrrh and heather honey fragrance. A very healthy variety.

According to the David Austin Site:

‘Constance Spry’ is the original English Rose and produces large, pure rose pink, deeply cupped blooms of luminous delicacy. It has a strong myrrh fragrance; in fact, it was this rose that introduced the myrrh fragrance to the breeding of the English Roses. Although it is only flowers once in early summer, it is still a very valuable variety.

Constance Spry (1886–1960) was a pioneer in flower arrangement and one of the first collectors of Old Roses in the early part of the 20th century.

According to the David Austin Site:

The blooms of ‘Charles Darwin’ are some of the largest to be found in the English Roses and are on a par with ‘Abraham Darby’, ‘Brother Cadfael’ and ‘Golden Celebration’, creating a really impressive effect in the garden. The flowers are very full and rounded at first, later opening up to shallow cups, which often have button eyes. Their colour could be described as old gold at first, sometimes with lemony or sandy tints. The blooms gradually pale in colour, creating a delightful mix. There is a strong, delicious fragrance that varies between a soft, floral tea and almost pure lemon, according to weather conditions.

Named after Charles Darwin the British naturalist who was born in Shrewsbury, Shropshire, not far from our nursery.

According to the David Austin Site:

There is something a little special about white roses – they are all purity and light – and yet really good white roses are rare among English Roses and Hybrid Tea Roses alike. This is because white roses are very difficult to breed. ‘Claire Austin’ bears pleasingly cupped buds of a pale lemon shade which gradually open to form large, creamy white flowers of typical English Musk delicacy; their petals perfectly arranged in concentric circles, with a few more loosely arranged in the centre. They have a strong fragrance based on myrrh with dashes of meadowsweet, vanilla and heliotrope. Strong and particularly healthy. Undoubtedly one of our finest white roses to date

According to the David Austin Site:

This is a particularly interesting rose in that it is the first in the English Old Rose group which has apricot flowers. These are large, about 4″ across, and of a beautiful shade of rich pure apricot that pales towards the outside of the bloom. They are of a rosette shape and very full petalled with a large button eye that gradually opens up; the petals loosely arranged in a quartered formation. There is a particularly lovely and strong tea fragrance which has hints of cedar wood and vanilla.
