First flush of David Austin ‘Abraham Darby’. It has the most wonderful fruity scent – you can almost smell it just looking at the photograph! I wonder why the breeder named it after Mr Darby – I just googled him & he does have an intriguing ancestry! Whatever the reason, the rose is one of my absolute favourites & can be depended on for bloom after deep, squashy, scented bloom for months on end….
Spring roses…..
