Rosa The Lark Ascending - English Shrub Rose
Rosa The Lark Ascending 'Ausursula'
Thank you to Hélène (order preparation and quality control) and Thibault (shipping) the received rose bush seems healthy and the original Austin label (green and white) was well present on one of the stems. One downside however, as the graft point was underground (risk of rotting or roots growing from the graft). Opinion from an amateur who has successfully planted over 320 different varieties of rose bushes in his garden." Revised text: "Thank you to Hélène (order preparation and quality control) and Thibault (shipping) the received rose bush appears healthy and the original Austin label (green and white) was clearly present on one of the stems. However, there is one drawback as the graft point was buried underground (risk of rotting or root growth from the graft). This is the opinion of an amateur who has successfully planted over 320 different varieties of rose bushes in his garden.

Description
The English rose The Lark Ascending is a charming variety, offering cup-shaped, semi-double flowers in a delightful light apricot colour, produced from the base to the top of a tall bush with an airy silhouette. They are lightly scented, and their fragrance varies from one rose to another. This variety boasts exceptional resistance and vigour.
This bush, measuring 1.5m (5ft) in height and 1m (3ft) in width, has an open habit, both bushy and airy. It perfectly illustrates the great diversity of flowers now found among English Roses. Its cup-shaped flowers have about twenty petals each, giving them a precious and very light appearance. They bloom from summer to frost. Medium-sized, they measure 6 to 7cm (2 to 3in) in diameter, and are have a pleasant light apricot colour. They are gathered in loose clusters of up to fifteen flowers. They emit a light fragrance, and can have different scents depending on the flowers. Some have the fragrance of tea roses, while others are enveloped in the scent of myrrh. Its bright green foliage is very healthy and its flexible stems are not very thorny.
It is an excellent rose for a mixed border, as its graceful simplicity pairs well with perennial plants or flowering shrubs such as for example Abelia, Nandina, or Caryopteris. It is a good companion for phlox and tall gypsophila. It also forms wonderful combinations with botanical roses such as Rosa alba suaveolens, Rosa californica, Rosa chinensis mutabilis, or Rosa foetida bicolor.
This rose gets its name from a piece of music composed by Ralph Vaughan Williams, in England.
Created by David Austin in 2012.

Planting and care
Plant your English Rose The Lark Ascending in a sunny or lightly shaded location. English roses are tolerant but won't like excessive limestone. They will adapt to any garden as long as the soil is well worked and rich enough. To plant your rose, prepare the soil by crumbling it and adding an amendment, such as bonemeal, at the bottom of the planting hole. Water abundantly after planting to remove air pockets. Water regularly for a few weeks to encourage root growth. Pruning English roses is essential for flowering. At the end of winter, shorten the branches to 3-5 buds above the ground (at the lowest level), choosing an outward-facing bud for a more elegant habit. Take advantage of this pruning to remove dead wood and unsightly branches. Pruning is done at an angle above a bud. As the flowers bloom, remove faded flowers to stimulate the development of other buds.
Roses are often spotted or unsightly in late summer, but it is not a problem for their development. These spots are not harmful to the rose; it is a natural phenomenon.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
