How to Grow David Austin Roses in Australia

David Austin Roses are incredibly resilient and grow in a variety of Aussie soils and climates. With the right setup, they’ll reward you with full, repeat blooms and healthy growth.

  • Pick a sunny spot that gets at least six hours of direct sunlight each day. Morning sun is ideal to help dry leaves quickly and prevent fungal issues.
  • Improve your soil before planting. Add compost or well-rotted manure to boost nutrients and drainage. For heavy clay, dig in gypsum and organic matter.
  • Dig a wide hole, place the rose so the bud union sits just above soil level, and water deeply to settle the roots.
  • In cooler climates, plant in late winter or early spring. If you’re in a warmer or subtropical area, late autumn planting gives the roots time to establish before summer.
  • Give each rose enough space so the foliage stays dry and healthy.

If you’re container planting, use a large pot with premium rose mix and make sure there’s plenty of drainage.

Caring for Your David Austin Roses

David Austin Rose care doesn’t need to be complicated. Stick to a few simple habits, and you’ll enjoy strong, beautiful blooms for years.

  • Water deeply a few times a week during the growing season. Deep watering builds strong root systems.
  • Fertilise in early spring, then again after major flowering cycles to support healthy growth and repeat blooms.
  • Mulch around the base with compost or bark to keep moisture in and weeds down. Just leave space around the stem to avoid rot.
  • Prune in winter to remove dead or weak stems, shape the bush, and improve airflow through the centre.
  • Watch for disease or pests, especially in humid weather.
  • Most varieties are naturally strong, but some basic rose maintenance keeps them looking their best.
