English rose 'Olivia Rose Austin'

English Rose 'Olivia Rose Austin' (Rosa 'Olivia Rose Austin'). Elegant and exceptionally resilient, the English Rose 'Olivia Rose Austin' is distinguished by its large, soft, pure pink rosette-shaped flowers with a delicious fragrance combining notes of red fruits and myrrh. Its flowering is recurrent, early, and continuous, from the beginning of the season until the first frosts. This rose forms a well-balanced, dense, and rounded bush, reaching 1.2 to 1.3 m in height, with glossy, healthy, and robust dark green foliage. Highly disease-resistant, it is one of the most reliable and easy-to-grow roses in the entire David Austin collection.

To plant the English Rose 'Olivia Rose Austin', choose a suitable exposure: full sun. The recommended soil is: rich, well-drained, slightly acidic to neutral. Water at the base and allow air to circulate between the branches. Remove dead parts with a clean tool, then adapt pruning to the rose's group. Winter protection depends on its hardiness and the possible presence of a graft union. Water the root ball before planting and ensure that water can drain after planting. During establishment, check the soil moisture by hand before watering again.

Allow a width of 1 m (3.5 ft) to arrange the space for this plant in the garden. The indicated height of 1.2 m (4 ft) helps choose its position relative to neighboring plants. Maintain access to the base to weed, check moisture, and remove damaged parts. Associate this variety with plants whose light and water needs are compatible. If you are considering a container, first check that its volume and drainage are suitable for root development. Roots in pots are more exposed to cold than those planted in the ground.
