'Mayor of Casterbridge' rose Reviews & Comments

A sad miscast in my garden. Very strong growth, well in excess of 2 metres, outgrowing all other Austins. Not sufficiently blackspot resistant (2/5). Flowers relatively small with a nasty tendency to ball out at rainy weather. Also, given the size of the plant, not really a prolific bloomer.

I also did not like Mayor of Castorbridge in California. I had thought it might be better suited to a colder and damper climate, but evidently not. In my yard it grew tall and thin, the flowers, sparsely produced, were pretty enough, but hidden among the stems and foliage.

Is this one of the Austin roses now only available (in the USA) from David Austin's own rose growing operation?
