Bow Bells is truly one of the best roses that I grow. I grow around 1300 for 15 years. Bow Bells is highly resistant to blackspot in my southern humid and hot climate. Always in bloom. Bow Bells gets huge, 8 x 10 if given space. I also grow around 80 of the David Austin roses, and this is one of the best. It just lacks the big scent and lots of petals that everyone has come to expect from most Austin roses. Bow Bells does have a mild fragrance.

9/007 I am interested in getting THE NUN, '87. Would you reccommend it? I live in the Silicon Valley, CA. I have intense sunlight, but also have a lot of shade on our balcony. Also, will this rose grow in a pot? Thanks!

I noticed that the listing here says "occasional repeat" but you say your's is always in bloom. Also, everytime I see the rose at Huntington Gardens and Descanso, it seems to be in bloom?

Mine's a really great bloomer. I'm in humid, hot NC z7b. We do get winter chill, definitely. I don't know whether it's a climate thing or what, but I highly recommend her as far as bloom quality and frequency!
