Sustainability

At David Austin^®, sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. Through our BLOOM initiative, we are committed to caring for the environment while ensuring our beautiful roses thrive. One of the key ways we achieve this is through our water recycling scheme.

At David Austin Roses, our BLOOM initiative supports us to nurtures the future by making sustainable choices. One of the key ways we do this is by offering bare root roses, which are not only beautiful but also environmentally responsible.

We have installed photovoltaic solar panels on the roofs of our production facility, offices, and cold stores to reduce our environmental footprint and adopt cleaner energy sources. These solar panels are crucial in our efforts to achieve greater sustainability. 

We’ve implemented an Integrated Pest Management system across all six of our themed gardens and our nursery- home to the breeding of our world-renowned roses. 

Approximately 60,000 petals from over 20 varieties of English roses, including those from the new rose we revealed at the show, Penelope Lively^®, will now become sustainable, biodegradable confetti sold on to benefit various UK cancer charities.
