Rosa

Rosa spp. ROSE
There is no better plant than the rose. It produces beautiful flowers in a wide range of colors with differing scents. The rose has been cultured by man for centuries, which has given us the widest possible range of colors and forms. The roses we sell are all climbers by nature, which makes them perfect for use on a trellis. Roses are deciduous, but in milder climates can retain their foliage all year long. Blooms occur in the spring, but may appear year-round in milder climates such as Southern California . What follows are descriptions of the selections we sell.
