Caragh Garden Notebook
To keep the flowers coming: feed in spring and early summer, water well in dry spells, and deadhead regularly. Planting with a little compost or well-rotted organic matter makes a noticeable difference in year one.
A deeply coloured, beautifully scented David Austin rose — perfect when you want your planting to feel rich, romantic and intentional.
