Olivia Rose Austin® Rose Bush By David Austin® - 3 or 5 Gallon
Had to dead head a ton of blooms but that’s to be expected. Her size is great and can’t wait to see her give me more blooms!
I just took the rose out of the box. It was delivered well packaged, very little dirt came out of the pot into the plastic wrap. Overall, I’m happy with the purchase. I think it might’ve been cleaned up a little better before it was sent out, for example clipping off the spent blooms. I’m excited to put Gertrude into the ground and enjoy her beautiful roses this year. Thank you.
Absolutely love my Keira roses! They arrived healthy, large, and beautifully packaged. The blooms are stunning with the perfect soft English garden look. High quality roses and I’ll definitely be ordering again!
Arrived on time and in great condition.

Stunning! Bought the Leonora (cream) and Juliet (peach) varieties. Video of the flowers is after 3 days when they opened. These were a gift and the recipient loved them. They are beautiful on their own—no need for any fillers. Delivery was on time and packaged beautifully. Highly recommend.
Beautiful and healthy! This is my second rose bush order this year from this rose shop and they don’t disappoint! Highly recommend!

My rose plant, the Queen of Sweden arrived fresh and healthy. She’s beautiful! Will be ordering again from your shop. Thank you for your great service!
My wife and I started a rose garden this year with common roses from our local nurseries. They had many thorns and not easy to work. We then discovered David Austin roses and found My Rose Shop sold grown out rose bushes shipped so we have them a try. I will say I am quite impressed with what they sent. A grown out beautiful rose bush and already had blooms when they arrived. We got rid of all our previous common roses from the local nurseries and bought more David Austin roses from here. Our garden is gorgeous now and my wife is in love with these. The roses have almost no thorns and are long stemmed perfect for bouquets. We will be ordering more and can’t recommend My Rose Shop enough. Thank you for sending us these high quality roses.
I can’t thank My Rose Shop enough for the stunning David Austin rose bushes they sent. They arrived over 3ft tall with buds and in a week I already had stunning roses blooming. Packaging was professional and they arrived in just 3 days! I will be buying more roses from here soon. Highly recommend! Thank you so much MRS!
