Sending you these photos today from the London Garden Press Event. I reckon we all need some colour and cheer right now . It’s -4 here in the city, and -6 at home. So here’s a gallery of David Austin Roses for you to enjoy.
These are from the cut flower range.
All the latest flowers, seeds, machinery, products- you name it – are showcased at the Garden Press Event . It’s a whirlwind of a day. I’m sitting here surrounded by a huge pile of brochures, catalogues, samples. It will take me a week to work though them, so this is just a little taster for now. Keep warm and safe all of you. Hope we get better weather soon.
How on earth does he have them flowering at this time of year…? Glad you enjoyed your day, Karen

Hi Cathy, they did heat and light treatments the same as they do for flower shows. It was a surprise to see them to be honest. Hope you are thawing out now. Watched the hellebores lift their heads from the ground today. It was magical to see. x

Karen thank you very much for those magnificent photos of those beautiful bouquets of roses. You’re absolutely right, you need color with snow and this cold. I love all the bouquets, but the first one I think is my favorite. I have entered the David Austin Roses link and it is wonderful: see hundreds of beautiful roses. With all those brochures you have reading for a few days. You will tell us if you find something very interesting. To your Mother, give me many memories and lots of love and take care of myself. To you Karen be very careful with the snow and keep warm. A lot of love Take care. Greetings from Margarita.

So lovely to see you yesterday, Karen, and have time for a chat. I’m realising today how many of the displays I missed, not sure how I missed this one as I spotted Michael Marriott when we were in the café. These pics are just the thing to spread some warmth today – my favourite is the deep pink one, just gorgeous! Hope you’re managing to keep warm, my son told me that they have 5 inches of snow in Leeds! Yikes!
