Are David Austin Roses are available in UK? My sister will visit here in Dec, she can brought them for me.

[aykhan]

You can definitely get them from the UK. After all they are English roses

Thanks Dear Ay Khan. Would you like to guide me about the price range of bare root roses? I am interested in David Austin's.

[UMAR KHAN]

Thanks brother

It depends on the nursery. David Austins website lists the price around 22 dollars in the US. Add shipping and it is around 25 dollars per rose bush. So it is quite expensive especially if one is ordering a few . These are Grade 1 bare root roses (which is the best kind, that is 2 year old plants with atleast 3 canes). Whenever possible get own root from them. This time of the year they might have stopped shipping bare root roses and probably are now shipping potted roses which ofcourse will be more expensive and in 1 gallon pots. Potted are better if one lives there since you know they're alive. I am quite concerned that my bare roots might die. Inshallah they won't.

Aoa, Dr. A Y Khan, I presume you are a medical doctor. I am also of the same profession only more than twice your age and retired. I also live in Lahore so do contact me when you return. I have a passion to develop a garden which will have flowers in all seasons and where people can come and relax.
