Queen of Sweden, planted in a pot and bloomed the first time in 2026. Very light pink and given more light & heat, the pink would fade to almost white. Very upright rose.
This is the first bloom of the season, full of deep pink cupped rosettes while everything else in the garden is just lush green. She adds an extra pop of color and amazing smell. She made me fall in love with David Austin roses and I want to plant more.

Captured Boscobel Rose bloomed the first time of the 2026 season. This one is in a self-watering pot. It has very strong scent and pink flowers.
Second year in the garden and it finally bloomed with its fiery pink pointed bracts around the central flower heads. Really like the simplicity of the flower.

It started flowering. Lacey flower first time blooming in my garden.
Started to bloom. Soft pink. It's very top heavy & branching a lot. I plan to add support and prune it in late season.
