David Austin Rose The Mill on the Floss (Austulliver) is a bare root English shrub rose bred by David Austin that bears large clusters of deeply cupped blooms with soft mid pink colouring that fades to pale almost lilac pink, each petal beautifully edged in carmine. The flowers nod elegantly on gently arching stems and release a sweet fruity fragrance. This healthy, bushy variety has glossy foliage, strong disease resistance, and repeat flowering from summer into fall. Hardy in Canadian gardens from zone 5 to 11, The Mill on the Floss adds romantic colour and movement to borders, beds, and cottage-style plantings.

Rose Planting & Care

(David Austin Rose - The Mill on the Floss)

  • 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.
