After you get a sense of the type of roses that you would like to plant, you will naturally want to know which type of roses best fit your ideas for planting. There are too many to list here, but I can list some of them for you. You should consult your nearest garden center for advice on whether your choice is fitting to your garden’s abilities.
Landscape roses
Landscape roses are great for the novice gardener. They are disease resistant, and require a little bit less maintenance. Hybrid teas are not a good choice for the novice rosarians and are not suitable for some climates.
Climbing Roses
These roses are different from regular roses because they are trained to grow upward like vines. Most people like to use them for trellises or buildings. Some of them are hybrid teas, wichuraine, and large flowered climbers. They are a beautiful addition to the look of one’s house.
Shrub Roses
Shrub roses like the beautiful rugosa are both long blooming and disease resistant. These are also great for the novice planter. They are gorgeous even when they are not in bloom because the foliage is so pretty.
Old Garden Roses
These roses are not very good for those with severe allergies to strong fragrances because they have a strong odor. However, they are disease resistant and continue to bloom for months at a time.
The Modern Rose
These are very special roses because they are the result of cross breeding the hybrid tea with the polyanthus. They are also called Floribunda. They are a beautiful combination of the best those two flowers have to offer. They are long blooming, fragrant, and they are great for cutting and display.
Miniature Roses
Miniature roses are exactly what they sound like. They have all the fragrance and beauty of a regular rose, but they have smaller blooms. These roses are great for indoor planting.
