David Austin OBE is the creator of the English Roses, an entirely new style of roses that have achieved international recognition. With his eldest son David J. C. Austin, he owns one of the world's leading rose nurseries, David Austin Roses. At Albrighton in Shropshire the family-run business has created rose gardens containing over 800 varieties. More than 1.2 million roses are grown for sale every year and the team carries out one of the largest rose breeding programmes in the world, selecting each year's new introductions after eight years of trialling. Born in 1926, David Austin has been breeding and hybridizing roses for more than seventy years and is still very active at the nursery, devoting most of his time to developing new roses. He was awarded the Victoria Medal of Honour by the Royal Horticultural Society in 2003 for his services to horticulture and in 2007 he received an OBE. He was awarded the Dean Hole Medal by the Royal National Rose Society and has received an honorary MSc from the University of East London for his work on rose breeding.
Iconic rose breeder David Austin wrote many regard as the definitive work on English roses, which has now been revised and updated. Sumptuously indulgent photography captures the delicate beauty and charm of different rose varieties, with fascinating details about their history, fragrances, cultivation and breeding. * The English Home * There are a couple of months to go before rose season, but this sumptuous updated edition showing off the long-flowering, highly scented varieties that Austin has been breeding for more than 60 years, will make you long for summer. * The Sunday Times *
