Insights
The rose is named after Thomas Hardy’s character Damon Wildeve, who features in the 1878 novel The Return of the Native. The novel follows the intertwined lives of a group of characters, including Wildeve and his former charismatic lover, Eustacia Vye, (another superb David Austin Rose, Rosa Eustacia Vye).
