Dorset Walled Garden
ROSES
"The spring layer of planting segues effortlessly into summer, when...(the) roses take centre stage. Spilling from every nook and cranny, sometimes alone, sometimes in a huddle, but always spectacular."
Troy Scott-Smith for Gardens Illustrated
The collection of roses has evolved over time, mostly due to us gardening organically and some roses being better suited to this than others. We have now collected over a hundred different varieties, both once-flowering and repeat-flowering roses - a mixture of Old English and French shrubs, climbers and an abundance of ramblers, along with some newer varieties. Our rose list can be found below.
