Roses are probably the post popular and desired garden
plants around. They are pleasantly fragrant and often considered to be
one of the most beautiful flowers available. However, if you’ve decided
to plant roses in your garden, you’ve probably already discovered that
there are many more varieties than most people imagine. While it’s hard
to detail all the different types of roses available, here’s some
information on so of the most popular varieties.
Hybrid Teas.
Picture a rose in your head. It’s pretty likely that the rose you’re
picturing is a hybrid tea. If you buy roses in a bouquet from a florist,
you’ll be getting hybrid teas. These plants grow straight stems, about
3-6 feet high, with a single flower at the end. They come in almost
every color; so they can be fit into almost any garden color scheme
Climbing Roses.
This is actually a group of several different types of roses. These
plants naturally sprawl out along the ground; they must be trained to
climb up trellises and other supports. Climbing roses can have single
flowers, or clumps of blooms. The blooms of these plants will also vary
in color and size.
Pimpinellifola
Roses. These roses grow on small shrubs. They are considered a great
rose for beginners because they are very hardy and attractive. However,
they don’t come in as many colors as hybrid tea roses. Available colors
include red, pink, yellow and white.
Miniature Roses.
These roses are exactly what they sound like: smaller versions of larger
types of rose bushes. Not only are the bushes smaller, about 1-3 feet,
they also have smaller leaves and blooms. The blooms are less than 2
inches in diameter. Because of their size, these flowers can also be
grown in pots or fit into small spaces.
When
choosing a variety of rose or any other type of flower, try not to rely
on pictures; they can be deceiving. Talk to friends, relatives, and
neighbors to see if any of them have the varieties you’re looking for.
This way you’ll know exactly what you’re getting when your flowers start
to bloom; giving you the most beautiful garden possible.
