David Austin Rose - Darcey Bussell

No Longer Available
This variety is no longer available and will not be restocked. Browse our collection for similar varieties.

Darcey Bussell (Ausdecorum) produces beautifully formed rosettes in a rich crimson-pink, with the blooms taking on a soft mauve hue as they mature. The medium-sized flowers have a light, fruity fragrance and repeat throughout the season. A compact, bushy English shrub rose, it’s an elegant choice for borders, containers, or cutting gardens. Introduced by David Austin in 2006.

While Darcey Bussell is no longer available, we recommend Gabriel Oak as an excellent alternative. It offers a similar rich colour and is a particularly healthy variety with excellent disease resistance.

Rose Planting & Care

(David Austin Rose - Darcey Bussell)

  • Rehydrate your rose. Unpack the rose quickly after receiving, trim 1/2" off the root tips and canes to keep them fresh.
  • Soak the roots up to the base of the cane for 2 hours - overnight.
  • Choose a site with a minimum of 4 hours of sun per day and dig a hole twice as wide as the root system and as deep as the roots (typically 16" wide x 16" deep)
  • Loosen the soil at the bottom the hole for better root growth then create a small mound in the base of the hole and drape the roots around it.
  • position the bud union (where shoots emerge) at ground level and backfill with the original soil. Lightly firm the soil around the plant.
  • Give the rose a good initial watering after plant and maintain regular watering. Keep the soil moist but not soggy.
