Roses
and How-To's
Roses are favored around the world. The rose species
grows throughout the Northern Hemisphere, and many fine hybrids have been developed from
them. They will grow in all climates except those that are extremely cold or hot.
Rose cultivators (varieties) vary greatly in flower
color, bloom frequency, and growth habits. There are many different cultivators and thus,
there is a rose for nearly every garden situation. Rose cultivators are grouped by
parent-age, growth habits, or flowering characteristics. The established groups are Hybrid
Tea (HT) and Grandiflora Roses; Hybrid Perpetual (HP) Roses; Miniature or Dwarf Roses;
Floribunda and Polyantha Roses; Climbing Roses; and Shrub Roses. The Shrub Roses include
the rose species and related cultivators.
