The Mill on the Floss (Austulliver) (standard form)

Dive into the enchanting world of the David Austin standard rose ‘The Mill on the Floss’ (90 cm), a rose that captures the essence of playfulness and refinement. Its richly filled flowers bloom in a charming mid-pink and gradually transform into a delicate soft pink shade, beautifully accented by subtle dark red petal edges. Each flower is a unique work of art, sometimes shining solo, other times in graceful clusters, creating a dynamic and natural effect. Enjoy its light, sweetly refined fragrance and its tireless reblooming, lasting from early summer well into autumn.

With its elegant standard height of 90 cm, ‘The Mill on the Floss’ forms a stunning crown that enriches your garden with movement and character. This David Austin rose is an ideal eye-catcher in borders, on terraces, or as a solitary potted plant, where its natural, informal growth habit adds a touch of relaxed English atmosphere. The versatile pink shades harmonize perfectly with lavender, white roses, or ornamental grasses, fitting effortlessly into both classic and modern garden styles.

Roses in pots

A potted rose is a rose plant that has already been grown in a pot and is delivered with a well-developed root system. These roses are ready to be planted directly in the garden or in a larger pot, without having to wait for root growth. This makes the potted rose ideal for planting throughout the year, especially from May through October.

Roses with bare roots

Bare-root roses – also called root roses – are rose plants delivered without a pot or soil. These roses are dormant and can be planted directly in open ground. The best time to plant a root rose is in autumn or early spring, when the soil is still moist and the temperature mild.

At Belle Epoque we supply bare-root roses from November through April. Thanks to the well-developed root system and the right planting conditions, these roses grow vigorously into healthy and bloom-rich bushes or climbing roses.

Products are shipped directly from the nursery every Monday and Wednesday. By delivering only twice a week, we reduce logistical emissions and optimise our processes. This benefits both the quality of our products and the climate.
