David Austin English Rose - Citrus hystrix 'Pipsqueak'

Rosa ‘Abraham Darby’ is a modern English rose bred by David Austin, combining the charm of old-fashioned roses with repeat flowering and improved disease resistance. It produces very large, double, cupped blooms with a strong fruity fragrance, blending apricot, pink, and yellow hues that soften as the flowers mature. This variety flowers repeatedly from spring through summer, making it a standout feature in both traditional and contemporary garden designs.

Key Features:

• Soil: Prefers fertile, well-drained soil enriched with organic matter
• Light: Thrives in full sun with at least six hours of direct light daily
• Watering: Keep soil moist during dry periods, particularly in flowering seasons
• Fertiliser: Apply slow-release fertiliser annually and supplement with liquid feeding
• Maintenance: Medium maintenance, including seasonal pruning and pest monitoring
• Flowering: Deciduous with healthy green foliage throughout the growing season

Ensure good air circulation and consistent feeding to maximise repeat flowering and reduce disease pressure.
