Steve812 said: A comment Zuzu made long ago about roses on Dr Huey stock being less prone to gopher damage prompted me to think about buying from David Austin Roses. Gophers are a great plague here and DA grafted roses are on Dr Huey stock, I think.


Actually @Steve812, Zuzu said the exact opposite. "I noticed that the ones attracting the gophers were the own-root roses and the roses grafted onto Dr. Huey rootstock. Fortuniana and multiflora never appealed to the gophers."
