GBLovely Bare Root Climbers Having just received my bare root roses I must say I am thrilled they are here. I needed to speak to Customer Services at David Austin about a further order for Standard Roses, I am sorry but I can’t remember the ladies name but goodness me she was so very helpful. Her knowledge and understanding was wonderful. Thank you so very much for all your help. I have now placed my order for Standard Roses. Best wishes and many thanks, Lucy Porter.

GBHello - Positive Feedback Hello, I felt compelled to write to share my positive experience. I ordered two red rose root stock for my garden and having been planted 6 weeks they are doing so well. I wasn't expecting roses in the first year however given the buds appearing am expectant of seeing some. Quality always bears fruit that's for sure!! Thank you

GBClaiming diseased roses to be perfectly healthy… People buy roses because they enjoy the beauty of the nature and not because we want to get frustrated by bad customer service. I purchased a Claire Austin last year that they were helpful in giving me a refund after sending pictures through email right away. This year my order of Eustacia Vye was in the same condition as the Claire. First they claim they can’t open the attached files which they never had trouble with viewing even when they asked me to send 20 photos at a time before. Instead they asked to send pdf file which I did after taking a while. They still claim they can’t open the attachment. Then they direct me to a website. Then told me the rose is perfectly healthy and won’t replace it. If they can’t open attachment they should contact their IT and not keep directing their customers to do something else. And they shouldn’t sell people diseased roses and claim that to be perfectly healthy.

GBI brought two standard roses together… I brought two standard roses together from DA, Planted them side by side , one failed and the other thrived. I contacted DA customer service and they told me it was airborne issue, My reply how it it my other standard rose was not affected also? They fobbed me off and gave me instructions to try and save it. I asked politely Per DA customer guarantee for a full replacement please. They didn’t want to know and washed there hands of responsibility. Buyers beware DA will not replace your rose if it fails! 😞

GBRose catalogue is great!! We've had well over a year away from gardening, but feel ready now to start again. Because we are planning to remodel part of the garden I thought it might be worth getting the David Austin Roses Catologue, now it's arrived!! So much information, really helpful, so many ideas for things to do and how to manage your roses!! Worth getting before you choose your roses, lots of advice and ideas.
