Masterclass presented by Lucy Marshall, Owner of Merribee, on the history and evolution of roses. Enjoyed with a delicious afternoon tea, and you will also take home a gorgeous bunch of fragrant David Austin roses. Have you ever wondered how old roses are? Did you know that the West never had a yellow rose until 1589? Or that roses in the west did not repeat-flower, but they did in China? And that they were highly fragrant in the West, but had relatively little scent in the China?
