David Austin Rose ID Help

8 years ago

I bought a bunch of David Austins at my local garden center about 6 weeks ago. One of them my dogs dug up (grr) and tore all the roots. I replanted her and she finally bloomed! And now I can't find the tag and have no idea who she is. Any ideas?

Hello,

I just went around my yard to see which of my pale Austin’s I have blooming to compare. Maybe your rose is Tranquility based on your petals configuration. Like Kristine mentioned if you have any ideas of what was included in your bunch it would really help. Yours seems to have more yellow than my tranquility, but I guess this could vary.

the crocus rose is another one that can look similar.

Your petal configuration also looks a bit like Crown princess when it is at its palest. ( it rarely gets this color in my garden)

You meantioned your buds don’t have any red so it is unlikely that it could be lichefield ( also your petals are too pointy).

Marlorena your LA is gorgeous. This one is certainly one of my fav near white Austin’s.

Are there red streaks in the buds at all? If so, I think it's 'Lichfield Angel'...

Do the other roses still have their tags ? Can you narrow it down? Do you remember which ones you bought ?

Louis, this is a 'Lichfield Angel' bloom with buds for you to compare.. there are usually these red streaks in the buds... if you don't have them then I expect it's one of the others... but so many seem to look alike in this range..

Where the plant is recovering from the recent stress, the bloom color and form can be affected and so future blooms may give everyone a better idea of what it truly is. However, Crocus Rose and Teasing Georgia are good possibilities.

Looks like Crocus Rose to me.

UPDATE! I found the tags in my gardening wagon and Crocus Rose it is. Good guess everyone. :)
