Rose catalog review 2013/2014

Have looked through a couple of catalogues now ready for the new season.

David Austen - beautiful but nothing interesting or different in my opinion. Still overpriced!

Cants of Colchester - interesting and great catalogue prompt delivery this week- oops! Lol

Cockers roses - another great catalogue and selection - can't wait to order from them.

What does everyone else think?

 

I agree CRG....DA's Rose Catalogue is a lovely glossy brochure with a few temptations but pricey...
I've had some lovely Roses ..mail order.. from Rumwood Nurseries in Kent but i think the best 'Rose Catalogue' is our very own GC Rose threads for getting new ideas of different Roses and a better idea of how they perform in all our gardens....ofcourse then you have to shop around to get them but i think a lot of the brochures look 'staged' to me and i have been slightly disappointed with the growth habits of some that i have browsed through catalogues for.....
Saying that...they are all irresitable

 

I won't buy David Austin roses they are far to pricey! I've bought roses from both Cants and Cockers and was pleased with the packaging, delivery time and the plants. I have also used Style Roses with no issues either.

I may have to replace one or two roses this year but apart from that I won't be buying any more, I'm happy with what I have and they are high maintenance.

 

Interesting
