Hi everyone,
Did anyone watch"Love your garden" on Friday. If so does anyone have or know where I can find the rose Miranda. I fell in love with this rose, but can't find anyone who sells it. David Austin does sell a bouquet using this variety, but doesn't sell it.

I'm afraid I've had no luck either. It doesn't appear in the RHS 'Plantfinder'.

Can I suggest that you contact David Austin and ask them if they can tell you a stockist?

The rose was named after.......
(Miranda (1869 — de Sansal, France)
I found that out on Wikipedia under
(List of rose cultivars named after people)
But could'nt find where to buy one sorry, I did try :o))
As Spritzheney said contact with David Austin.
Good Luck :o)))

Thanks, I will e-mail Davis Austin to see what information
he might have and will let you know if I have any luck :o)

I think Miranda roses may be shrub roses used for the cut flower production under greenhouse conditions.
The cut flowers come from David Austin I think!

I bet you have a point there Jen h :o))

Maybe you can't buy the roses as bushes at all, then. It seems a shame, doesn't it.

You were right Jen h. I had a reply from David Austin to say that this variety of rose was raised only for cut flowers. What a shame, it's beautiful!

I wonder if David Austin could recommend one of his that looks almost like Miranda? for you.
