David Austin Bush Rose Olivia Austin - 20cm Pot

David Austin English Shrub Rose Olivia Austin (Ausmixture).

‘Olivia Rose Austin’ is a graceful English shrub rose with large, cupped rosettes in an even mid-pink. The soft colouring and classic flower form give it a timeless look, while the blooms are produced generously from early in the season through repeated flushes into autumn.

Bred by David Austin and named after the daughter of David J.C. Austin and granddaughter of David C.H. Austin, this variety is valued for its healthy growth, reliable flowering and adaptability. It forms a well-shaped medium shrub that works beautifully in rose beds, mixed borders, informal hedging and large decorative pots.

The flowers carry a light to medium fruity fragrance and can be picked for indoor arrangements, making this a rewarding rose for both the garden and the vase.

Mature size: approximately 1.25 to 1.75 metres high × 1.25 to 1.75 metres wide

Fragrance: Light to medium fruity fragrance

Care & Growing Tips
Plant in full sun to partial sunlight in fertile, well-drained soil. Water deeply while establishing and during extended dry periods. Feed established roses in late August and again after the main flowering flushes. Mulch in spring and deadhead regularly to encourage repeat flowering. As an English shrub rose, prune lightly in July, or August in colder and frost-prone areas, removing dead, weak or crossing growth while maintaining the plant’s natural shape.
