The vigorous, bushy-growing English shrub rose bears apricot-coloured, pink-flushed and densely double blooms. In the style of the 'Old Roses' they are cup-shaped and distinctly quartered, exuding a strong, fruity fragrance. With small pauses, the blooms appear singly or in small clusters into autumn.
It feels most at home in a sunny position, where it flowers almost without pause. This versatile variety can be kept in a larger container as well as used as a smaller climbing rose.
In a poorly ventilated, damp location, leaf health may need attention. Apart from that, this rose is considered robust and reliably hardy.
The rose variety was originally named after an English iron manufacturer and pioneer of the industrial revolution. Despite its considerable age, it remains a popular and rewarding Austin rose, and for many the English Rose with the most beautiful blooms.

Needs a bit of patience at the beginning, but then she is unbeatable.
Blooms first of all and then until
frost, profusely. Wonderful fragrance.
This rose is a must for every
garden.Automatically translated · Show original
Similar experiences to Johanna Ost. Even after frost damage (as this year in our garden on the outskirts of Vienna) she sprouts vigorously again from the base. Flower shape, colour and fragrance are among the best! Absolutely recommended.Automatically translated · Show original
The blooms in my south-facing bed keep wilting. The heads hang limp, and in rain they turn mummified and rot.
She is now in her second year and I'm not happy with her ...
How long do you need PATIENCE with her??Automatically translated · Show original
The rose has wonderful blooms and an enchanting fragrance. She flowers tirelessly. Only problems with black spot, but that could be due to the poor soil.Automatically translated · Show original
Her heads are a bit too heavy for the shoots, but this year, for the first time in three years (two of them in a pot), she is growing into a lovely shrub. I think she needs the best spot in the garden and doesn't want to be crowded by other plants.Automatically translated · Show original
As I see, I'm not the only one who thinks of this wonderful rose with tenderness. Patience was needed, but it was worth it. In the second year my AUScot was almost done for, but with an underground defensive wall of garlic cloves she recovered splendidly. In fragrance and colour she fulfils every wish!
To all the despairing: Keep at it! She will thank you.Automatically translated · Show original
Habe diese wunderschöne Duftrose als Hochstammrose auf der Terasse stehen. Sternrußtau hat sich schon breitgemacht, aber der ganze Stamm ist voller Knospen, eine aufgeblühte habe ich heute in die Vase gestellt und der ganze Raum duftet nach ihr. Wunderschön anzusehen.
Die Blüten sind sehr schön, aber der Strauch nicht. Zum Glück blüht sie oft.
super duft traumhafte farbe sternrußtauanfällig!
Gibt es eine Rosensorte, die der A. Darby zum Verwechseln ähnlich sieht? Ich habe eine (angebliche) Darby von Austin, mit entsprechendem Etikett bei einem Blumenhändler erworben, der die Rose bei einem Steinfurther Rosenzüchter für mich besorgt hat.
ABER: Obwohl Blütenform und Farbe der Darby entsprechen, hat die Rose keinen Duft (sie riecht sogar ziemlich "mottig") und ist ausserdem extrem hitzeempfindlich. Weiss jemand mehr zu Darby "Doppelgängern"??
Die Rose kam im Container hier in hervoragendem Zustand an. Nun ist sie eingepflanzt und freut sich bester Gesundheit.Knospen sind zu sehen wir freuen uns auf die Blühten.
Diese Rose gehört zu meinen absoluten Favoriten. Sie steht in einem großen Kübel an einem vollsonnigen Platz auf meiner Terrasse und erfreut mich jetzt schon den vierten Sommer mit ihrem Duft und ihren wundervollen Blüten (siehe Foto). Probleme mit Krankheiten hatte ich bei ihr bis jetzt noch keine. Ich kann diese Rose wirklich nur empfehlen.

diese Rose ist meine absolute Lieblingsrose mit ihrem betörenden Duft.
Dazu der wunderbar gefüllte Blütenkopf mit den 3 Herzen ;-)
Eine wundervolle Rose mit umwerfendem, fruchtigem Duft. Ändert, wie viele andere Rosen auch, die Farbe, je nach Temperatur. Je kälter, desto satter apricot sind die Blüten.
Eine wunderschöne Rose.Das ist ein Muß für jeden Rosenliebhaber.Sie lieb einen lehmigen Boden.Viele Grüße an alle Rosenliebhaber
Habe diese Rose nun schon seit ca 10 Jahren, sie rankt ca 2,50 m um einen Rosenbogen. Duft und Blühfreudigkeit ist wunderbar, nur ärgert mich in den letzten Jahren die starke Anfälligkeit für Sternrußtau. Man muß früh des Austrieb spritzen sonst hat man hinterher keine Chance.
I now have AUScot in her second year. He blooms and blooms... The fragrance is insane!! I love my AUScot, even though he is not rainproof at all. Sadly the buds no longer open and rot. For me he remains a really fantastic rose that I wouldn't want to be without in my garden.Automatically translated · Show original
For several years now we have enjoyed our rose arch. The rose AUScot rewards us every year with many very strongly fragrant blooms.
Together with the clematis "Roter Kardinal" they make a wonderful flower combination.Automatically translated · Show original
Tolle Blüten, toller Duft...über die gesamt e Saison. Benötigt allerdings Platz und ist anfällig für Sternrußtau.
Ich habe vor 2 monate gekauft und in ausland (karibik)als geschenk mitgenohmen(für meine mama):top qualität,anspruchlos(war fast eine ganze woche ins wasser und trotzdem der ganze rreise überstanden)und schon nach 4 woche bekammt die erste knospen..Bin richtig zufrieden!!!DANKE
Habe diese Rose gekauft und eineplanzt.
1 Blüte von 4 ist aufgegangen dann sind die Blätter gelb geworden und die anderen Blüten haben sich nicht mehr geöffnet und sind jetzt welk gworden.
Was habe ich vielleicht falsch gemacht.
Danke um Hilfe!
I sniffed this rose and just had to have her. You could literally get addicted to the fragrance. However, I still haven't planted her out, but have first been observing where she likes it best. Could it be that she doesn't like full sun? She/he quickly lets the head droop. Only when it got cold did AUScot seem to really feel at home. Well, it is an English rose after all, and they don't get that much sun. Is there anyone who could confirm this?Automatically translated · Show original
I have AUScot as a standard rose in a large pot, for about 5 years now. Since we live in the Allgäu and have very cold winters, she goes into the greenhouse. She is beautiful and gives a lot of joy. A rose liqueur made from the blooms is very good. Cuttings root well in early spring.Automatically translated · Show original
The rose AUScot has been with me for 12 years, about 3 years after her introduction. She was one of my first roses, along with other Austin roses that awakened my passion for roses. Back then I didn't know much about roses yet and my plantings were still rather amateurish. So AUScot was planted in loamy soil, which was gradually improved by adding compost. At first the rose was accordingly very scrawny and growth stagnated, even though the foliage looked rather healthy. She produced at most two shoots, which however always bore a huge bloom. The blooms were every time so beautiful with such a ravishing fragrance that I never had the heart to get rid of her. So she just stayed, surrounded by perennials, and when the one bloom came, she was a real eye-catcher. Every year she got a dose of compost and the soil has gradually improved. For the past 2-3 years I have noticed that her growth is improving markedly and she produces more blooms. These are huge, fully double with hundreds of petals in a fantastic orange-apricot-peach-pink-yellow shading and give off a delightfully fruity fragrance. Under favourable soil and light conditions this rose is certainly easy to care for and a real eye-catcher in the garden.Automatically translated · Show original
Anyone who doesn't like AUScot has bad taste. A dream of a rose, from day one she has been the most beautiful rose in the universe. I've already infected other people with this rose.Automatically translated · Show original
AUScot stood in our patio bed for almost 20 years and delighted us with her wonderful fragrance and abundant flowering right into late autumn. She grows vigorously, is actually quite robust and makes no special demands on the soil.
Unfortunately she reacts to prolonged rain with black spot, and the buds rot on the shoot.
In that case it is advisable to cut her back lightly. As soon as the weather improves again, many new buds form.
You should definitely plant her near a seating area or by the terrace so that you can enjoy the lovely fragrance!
This winter/spring our rose unfortunately died, but I will plant a new AUScot, because I have not found a more beautiful rose so far.Automatically translated · Show original
In keeping with the motto: slow but sureI planted AUScot bare-root in autumn 2020. I already thought something wasn't working out, she was the last to sprout. But now she has really stepped on the gas and is full of new shoots, bushy, beautiful and healthy. Wonderful foliage colour and seems to be quite robust. You just have to wait, she is - at least for me she was - a little slow. But all that is no problem. Now she grows quickly and healthily.Automatically translated · Show original
Very disappointed. Rose bush almost dead after planting two months ago.Never had such a problem with a rose bush. This variety must be very fragile. I am so satisfied with my other English roses ordered from Schmid. Eustacia, chêne Gabriel, alexandra kent etc... impeccable rose bushes.Automatically translated · Show original
Beautiful flowers and glorious fragranceLast year I rescued the rose from a garden centre in a wretched state, because the colour, but above all the fragrance of the single flower had made me take it with me. At first it was in quarantine in a container on the terrace and there it only produced almost white, single flowers. Since the beginning of the year it has stood in the bed, has recovered splendidly and now blooms in a deep apricot.Automatically translated · Show original
