Climbing Rose
Rosa selections
The acrobats of the rose world, climbing varieties develop long canes well adapted to
training on pillars, fences, arbors, and gazebos. Most climbing roses are mutations or
variations of bush-type varieties. They develop either large, single flowers or clustered
blooms on a stem. Climbers may bloom once a season or continually, depending on
the variety. Climbers can be trained to bloom more heavily by leading their canes in a
horizontal direction. Loose anchoring to a support will encourage young plants to climb.

Floribunda rose
-
-
Rosa selections
Floribunda roses offer a bouquet on every branch. The small flowers look like
elegant hybrid tea blooms but appear in clusters instead of one flower per stem.
Floribundas are a cross between polyantha species roses and hybrid teas,
combining hardiness, free flowering, and showy, usually fragrant blooms.
Sizes of these hardy roses vary from compact and low-growing to a more
open habit and heights of 5-6 feet, ideal for tall hedges. The foliage on
floribunda roses tends to shrug off diseases, making for a low-maintenance
plant that delivers maximum impact with its continuous bloom cycles.
Most floribundas require very little spring pruning -- just removal of dead or
damaged wood.

Grandiflora rose
Rosa selections
Grandiflora roses blend the best traits of hybrid teas and floribundas.
They produce the same elegantly shaped blooms as hybrid teas,
but in long-stemmed clusters that continually repeat,
like floribundas. The plants tend to be tall (up to 7 feet), hardy, and
disease-resistant. Because of their size, grandifloras are suited to
hedging and flower-border backgrounds. This rose category was
created to accommodate the unique 'Queen Elizabeth' rose introduced
in 1955.

Groundcover rose
Rosa selections
A new breed of landscaping roses came about with the advent of
shrub roses, which offer beautiful ways to fill in borders and cover
bare earth. The low-growing groundcover roses are useful for mass
planting in a border or under a tree, and to mix colorfully with perennials
or shrubs, line a path, cover a slope, or to be planted in hanging baskets
or window boxes for a bloom-spilling display.
To reinvigorate groundcover roses each year, cut back the plants by
two-thirds while they are still dormant in early spring.
Hybrid tea rose
Rosa selections
Hybrid teas traditionally produce the showiest blooms. In fact, most
roses at florist shops are hybrid tea varieties. Today's rose breeding
emphasizes fragrance as well as plant vigor. The form of a hybrid
tea rose is tall and upright, with sparse foliage toward the base.
The blooms develop singly on long stems, and the buds are often
as elegant as the open blooms.
Hybrid teas require careful pruning while still dormant in early spring
to ensure good air circulation through the plant and development of
vigorous, healthy canes. A sunny location with well-drained, fertile
soil and rose food applied at least three times a season will guarantee
abundant flowers to enjoy in a vase. Protect roses in climates colder
than Zone 6 with heavy mulching around the base of the plant.

Miniature rose
Rosa selections
Gardeners limited in space can enjoy all the fun of rose growing
by cultivating miniature roses in containers. They also adapt well
to flowerbed edging, front-of-the-border socializing with perennials
and annuals, and low hedges.
Miniature roses first came into being in the early 1930s as an
accidental result of rose hybridizing. Since then, master
miniaturists have created many jewel-like varieties featuring
perfectly shaped tiny blooms on clean, healthy plants that
generally stay under 2 feet.
Miniature roses respond to all the care basics of regular
-size roses -- deep irrigation, sunshine. and regular fertilizing
-- but they do need extra winter protection in colder climates.
To ensure the plant doesn't die back to the roots, in Zone 5
and below, bury the rose plant in a mound of soil.

Shrub rose
Rosa selections
Shrub roses take the best of the hardiest rose species,
and combine those traits with modern repeat blooming
and diverse flower forms, colors and fragrances. Some
shrub roses may grow tall, with vigorous, far-reaching
canes; others stay compact. Recent rose breeding has
focused on developing hardier shrub roses for
landscaping that need little to no maintenance.
