		Roses Select the right rose for your garden Landscape Roses: Shrub Rose: Grows 3-5 ft. Dense mounding type shrub that is a prolific bloomer and very easy care. Disease and pest resistant. Outstanding rose for busy people and beginner gardeners. Not good for cut flowers. Ground Cover Rose: Grows 1-4 ft. high & has the same characteristics as a shrub rose. Garden Roses: Hybrid Tea Roses: Grows 3-4 ft high. Largest flower with single bloom on a stem. Good for cutting. Must be treated for insects and fungus but the rewards are worth it. Plan to plant other perennials in front or near the base. Grandiflora Rose: Generally taller than a tea rose, & produces smaller flowers on a single stem or may be clustered. Good for cutting gardens. Floribunda Rose: Grows 2' - 3'. Smaller shrub than a Tea rose with smaller multi blooms on a single stem. Good for color in the garden. Climbing Rose: Grows 8'- 12'. Long canes that must be attached to an arbor or trellis. Some climbers will only bloom once a year. Newer varieties will bloom all season. Note: Never trim a climber back for winter. Trim out dead wood only in the spring. Miniature Rose: Small shrub growing 1 _ - 3ft. tall. Profuse bloomer with small multi blooms on a stem. Note: Do not confuse this with annual mini roses that will not come back after winter.

			Rose Gardening Tip. The rose garden planting season is just around the courner. It is time to collect and sharpen you gardening tools. This is also a good time to finalize that plan for that special something new that you are going to try in the garden this year. Remember most roses like at least 6 hours or more of sun each day. In addition, good drainage is a must. Pink Promise
