Very helpful! Something I had been waiting for a rosarian to cover. Thank you! Any reason you did not talk about the yellow rose next to ancient Mariner ?
👋 beautiful. Do you have the pilgrim? Or James Galway? Im looking for a shade tolerant rose thats a large climber and continuously blooms 😊 any suggestions? I just started my journey with david austin roses this year.. while i do love them.. my wallet does not. The more i observe other youtubers i see.. disease.. thin floppy branches.. etc.. i see youre expanding to kordes, meiland, and others.. any recommendations from those? Thanks.. aton!😊
Hi Ann, yes I have both pilgrim and James Galway. Pilgrim unfortunately hasn’t performed well for me, not its fault of course. It’s in a very tight spot competing with other plants. James Galway has been In My garden just over a year in a shaded spot. His blooms are unique and beautiful but shatters too quickly and same goes for Generous gardener. I would say strawberry Hill might be you best choice as she performs well in the shade and has an amazing scent. Great to see another rose enthusiast, it’s such an addictive passion. I’ve always love Da roses from day one. The beauty of David Austin and fragrance is unmatched . Only downside to da roses is that they can be difficult to keep healthy and the flowers don’t last very long, hence i have been looking at other breeders such as kordes , Meiland ect…. Although Meiland flowers aren’t as pretty as DA or others, but for me they have stood out the most, the fragrance is the best and blooms last longer than all other breeders. So my advice to you Ann would be to start with a few David Austin as they are one of the most expensive but also consider other roses the other breeders, don’t make the mistake I made when I first started. Good luck
@kenvoong5977 Thankyou much for a quick and thorough response😊 Gertrude jekyll was the first one I bought this year and she is in a huge pot with maybe 6 hours of sun a day ATM, she was doing really good but has been taking a break for awhile now as it was really hot, she was definitely growing in the process though, i hope she blooms alittle more in the years to come.. I have her, Scepter'd Isle, Princess Alexandra, and an Eden climber. I love all sorts of plants! But roses have different spots in my heart nowadays ❤️ I hope to have a beautiful collection one day. I didn't know one person could watch as many videos on TH-cam about roses.. Thanks again, love your videos :) 🧡
@annbrodzinski5707 yes watching TH-cam makes matters worse. I have princess Alexandra( my favourite), sceptre and climbing Eden all are fantastic roses. Eden is bred by Meiland, her blooms are one of the most beautiful and long lasting.
Hi Ken, Roses are looking wonderful. You have some very nice pots too. I am very impressed with your knowledge about your roses. I have a job just remembering the names of mine. You have a great sense of humour. I was wondering what age is classed as old. I'm 64 now and when I was in my early 20's, anyone over 30 seemed ancient. I've changed my mind about that!
Hahah.. Hi Wendy, I’m far from having enough knowledge about roses and often embarrassed for all the miss information I’m giving to viewers. Good looking pots are often so expensive in uk, I was fortunate enough to find a fairly cheap looking and big enough pots for all my roses. My voice sounds like someone in their seventies. Although not quite but for sure ancient in many youngsters eyes.
Whilst I love DA roses, they are expensive, usually very good. However, I have several in my tough garden, and despite tlc, they slowly wane over the years, with one exception: Sweet Julliette, one the the roses that they use for breeding for scent - vigorous, thorny, disease free, magnificently floriferous, puts up many new shoots every year. And don't overlook many other rose breeders with some fine roses. And then there's the topic of taking rose cuttings, for another day, a lifetime hobby.
Hi yes I do agree with you the amount of tlc required to maintain a healthy Da rose and often a challenge, but they are the most beautiful in my opinion. I have taken a Lots of cuttings this year not sure what I’ll do with them. I just wish I had more room
Hello my friend wow you have a beautiful collection of David Austin roses and thank you for sharing your beautiful garden and thank you for sharing this video with us ❤️😍🫣👏👏👏
I too admire your ever growing collection of DA roses , fortunately you have more space for more. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and expertise with us
Thanks so much for this video. I watched it and I could calm down for the first time today. It’s like yoga for my mind ❤. So much beautiful roses! Don’t worry about your voice! It’s perfect as it is! Greetings from Austria from „Ruth‘s Rosen 🌹
The Kordes perfection rose surpasses any other in my opinion. I learn so much from your videos giving the opportunity to see the rose plants in their totally height , foliage and health. Thank you.
Hi Maya, you are right pink perfection is a rose that has perform better in the shade compared to majority of my other Da roses ( which I don’t like to admit) Every roses has their prime and pink perfection took the limelight on that particular day.
Beautiful roses Ken, all in bloom so wonderful to see this morning as it's pouring it down with rain here, very windy and not much chance of me getting out into the garden. I have some winter bedding to pot up in the potting shed that will keep me busy and dry !! It really is very wet here today :( Your voice is great and age is just a number. I'm a lot older than you and recently we had roofers working here and they said are you on holiday from work this week and I said no I'm retired and they all nearly fell off the roof 🤣They thought I was in my 40's I must make great coffees ! That happens to me all the time so don't you worry about your lovely young voice you sound just great as you are. Your garden is looking so colourful and the roses are all in great health too such a credit to all your hard work. Thanks for the tour really enjoyed it 🌹
Hi Linda, I would have fallen off with few broken bones 🦴 too. Honestly you sound and look incredibly young . These 🎤 are so sensitive, I really need to lower my voice to a whisper in order to keep the voice down. The weather has also caught up down south. We are also experiencing the same gusty winds. Looks like our rose season is almost over for this year. It’s been an absolute pleasure and honour meeting with this group of great people and garden enthusiasts. Having to get to know this small group of people has really made a huge difference.
@@kenvoong5977 Yes the weather has really taken a turn for the worse, we were bare foot in the sand enjoying glorious sunshine last week in Wales it was really lovely at the beach but now my dog is sulking!! he doesn't care for the rain much. Gardening with like minded friends is fabulous yes you are so right. I love our little happy band of rose lovers, we all help and inspire each other although I always end up wanting to buy more roses after watching all of your videos 🤣
@@kenvoong5977 your garden will be even more colourful, Ken. I have added not as many, just 7 bare root ( Meilland, kordes, US). Let's hope summer this year is equally good for gardening. 🌱
Lovely Ken. Check out your channel! Doing fantastically well mate. Look at your viewing numbers absolutely awesome figures!! Was so pleased to see that and thoroughly deserved. I’ve zero doubt your channel will outgrow mine very soon and again that will please me :). Regarding the individual reviews mate it’s not my cup of tea I don’t think, but I think you could do it so don’t write yourself off. A lovely collection as always my friend.
Thank you my friend. I want to thank all my viewers , my sister and especially you JayJay for your incredible support , encouragement and inspiration. I know for a fact a student can never beat the master. Being able to share this passion is always a pleasure and I could never have imagine to see these figures without your support…….. Ps. That was supposed to be my Oscar speech !!!
A very restful and beautiful video, Ken. On the subject of the Ancient Mariner, I can confirm it performs very well in full sun - maybe too well if you are looking for a compact rose!
Hi Nik , i’ve seen your ancient mariner growing up to 7 feet tall in full sun, I’m glad mine aren’t because I’m not risking climbing up the ladder just to have a sniff at the scent.
How many hours of sun on average do these get? Will.they survive with no sun at all? I have an area that is bright and open but it's north facing so gets no sun. Thanks
These ones get around 3-4 hours of sun on a nice day which is minimal they need to thrive. All roses needs sun , I don’t think that area will be good for any rose as they will at least few hours of direct sunlight . Certain varieties does prefer partial shade. So the answer to your question would be not ideal, of course you can always give it a try. 🙏
Oh my gosh I was just commenting on another one of your videos asking about partial shade areas (I'm new here 😅) and here you have an entire video comitted to my questions. Thank you! This is just what I was looking for! I will stay tuned for more of your beautiful videos as well. ❤
Hi Ken, I don't know what to do with the spiders on my roses either 🤷, so much to learn!!! What is the beautiful yellow rose next to your Da Vinci rose?
Thank you Linda, your garden is also very beautiful with huge diversity of plant and roses 🌹. lol 😂 I kinda lost count of how many because I keep adding. I think I have around 60 da roses and 40 others breeders including lots more kordes? Meiland and tantau for the coming rose season
Wow, 60 DA roses! I love all DA roses, but my area is too cold for most of them ,only a few can over winter without protect. Enjoyed watch all your roses!@@kenvoong5977
Love your videos Ken .. you have a beautiful rose garden.. Just be careful with your music lovely as it is but sometimes it is a little loud and drowns out your voice.
DA rose collector here too ken! Your garden and roses are just beautiful. I was watching your roses in the wind and was wondering how the heck you manage in a storm? I strap most of mine to a million canes! Haha..they look like they are in straight jackets. I dont know why I keep buying additional roses only to panic even more when there is a storm on the way😳
Hi Dave, I’m quite fortunate all my roses aren’t very exposed to elements and never have to worry about any storm damage. I often do hold my potted roses with bamboo for extra support Lol.. I’m so like you just keep buying more even though there is no more room even though I’ve bought another 16 on top of what I already have. Really looking forward to how my new ones flower later in the year. How many DA variety do you have ?
@kenvoong5977 bought another 16? 😄. Ken you've made me laugh! I've squeezed another 4 in during bare root season and I'm still tempted to get another 2 ha ha. I have a very exposed garden and the wind gets them all the time but somehow they come through OK. The generous gardener has the most shelter on a wall but still manages to come off worse so I've reduced it by half this year. Its quite a monster, even though it only has 2 canes for me. I bet it will throw up a 1000 new canes now that I've pruned it hard this year lol. I have about 30 roses , most are david austin. I can't help bringing some home every year when I visit the gardens. And then of course there's bare root season which is tempting as well. I cant wait for your videos this year Ken, especially now you have more! Happy gardening
@@davenadainton4209 wow 30 is impressive and certainly not the last. Like you I’ve been a massive fan of David Austin but this year I’m been a bit of a rose connoisseur, as beautiful and fragrant as da are, their blooms doesn’t seem to last. My new line up would no doubt give all my DA a tough competition , battle of the heavyweights.

Thank you 🙏 lucie
I was laughing at the taste of a hairy spider and lethal thorns. 🤣
Wasn’t supposed to be funny, poor spider 🕷️ i certainly found it funny 🤣 but didn’t laugh just incase there were insect lovers watching
Very helpful! Something I had been waiting for a rosarian to cover. Thank you! Any reason you did not talk about the yellow rose next to ancient Mariner ?
Beautiful! I Like your voice as much as your roses so not to worry about it 😅😊😂
Thank you so much Josie 😀I feeling much better seeing this comment
👋 beautiful.
Do you have the pilgrim? Or James Galway?
Im looking for a shade tolerant rose thats a large climber and continuously blooms 😊 any suggestions?
I just started my journey with david austin roses this year.. while i do love them.. my wallet does not. The more i observe other youtubers i see.. disease.. thin floppy branches.. etc.. i see youre expanding to kordes, meiland, and others.. any recommendations from those?
Thanks.. aton!😊
Hi Ann, yes I have both pilgrim and James Galway. Pilgrim unfortunately hasn’t performed well for me, not its fault of course. It’s in a very tight spot competing with other plants. James Galway has been In My garden just over a year in a shaded spot. His blooms are unique and beautiful but shatters too quickly and same goes for Generous gardener. I would say strawberry Hill might be you best choice as she performs well in the shade and has an amazing scent.
Great to see another rose enthusiast, it’s such an addictive passion. I’ve always love Da roses from day one. The beauty of David Austin and fragrance is unmatched .

Ps. Gertrude jykell is a very good climber with gorgeous fragrance and repeats very well but very thorny. will need full sun ☀️ unfortunately
@kenvoong5977 Thankyou much for a quick and thorough response😊
Gertrude jekyll was the first one I bought this year and she is in a huge pot with maybe 6 hours of sun a day ATM, she was doing really good but has been taking a break for awhile now as it was really hot, she was definitely growing in the process though, i hope she blooms alittle more in the years to come.. I have her, Scepter'd Isle, Princess Alexandra, and an Eden climber.

Thank you Kyla, not so sure if it’s beautiful but definitely a garden with little maintenance.

Good looking pots are often so expensive in uk, I was fortunate enough to find a fairly cheap looking and big enough pots for all my roses.
My voice sounds like someone in their seventies. Although not quite but for sure ancient in many youngsters eyes.
Hi, Ken👋 I just started subscribing, am not young though😂 thanks for your videos really help me to choose DA roses for my garden 😊
😂 I’m not young either, I was just joking. I’m glad you find these videos helpful. Thanks for watching Emiko
