If you’ve admired my rose arbor in the home garden, let me tell you that it’s neither difficult nor expensive to create. Not even two years ago, in November 2018, I bought a flat-pack wooden arbor. Josh helped me put it together, then I painted and cemented it into the ground, as the Island is very windy.

After that, I planted two bare-root @david_austin_roses climbing roses – one on either side. Two seasons of winding the vines around the arbor, and the result is beautiful. I chose the variety ‘Generous Gardener’ because it blooms all summer long, and even now, in October (last photo), it has buds and flowers.

You can plant bare-root roses from now until late winter in Britain, and they're a lot less expensive than potted plants. If you’re elsewhere with colder winters, you can still order the plants now, and they’ll generally arrive at the optimal planting time for your region. The growers really help you out on that.

To help you to recreate the same feature, I’ve also shared bare-root planting tips on lovelygreens.com. You can find the piece on the homepage, and you can find a shortcut via the link in my bio ✌🌹
