Roald Dahl (Ausowlich) (on stem)

Step into the enchanting world of David Austin with the Rosa ‘Roald Dahl’ standard rose, a charming and reliable English beauty named after the legendary writer. From warm orange-red buds unfold robust, medium-sized rosettes in a soft apricot color, adding a cheerful and sunny accent to any garden. The flowers emit a subtle, fruity tea fragrance, perfectly balanced with their elegant shape. Awarded a silver medal (2020) and the Irwin Trophy for excellent pest and disease resistance, this rose is a carefree choice for lovers of beauty and quality.

With a stem height of 90 cm, the ‘Roald Dahl’ standard rose is ideal for those who want to add elegance and structure to the garden. The compact crown and nearly thornless branches also make it very user-friendly and suitable for various applications: from borders and terraces to cottage gardens or as a striking solitary plant. Create a summery English effect full of color and fragrance by combining it with lavender, sage, or soft yellow perennials.

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.
