Choose the best Roses for your Garden

Our rose buds are fat and ready to burst open, truly an exciting time for rose lovers. Pam Flamm, our highly valued horticultural resource at the Centerport Garden Club, found an article for us from the Manhasset Public library's material on the basic care of roses.
It covers watering, pruning, deadheading, feeding and disease control. Keep in mind that in addition to the old roses (heirloom roses), modern hybrids (roses developed since 1867), hybrid tea roses, and wild species mentioned in the article, there are also roses bred since 2000, sometimes called millennial roses. These roses are bred not only for their beauty and fragrance, but with an emphasis on disease resistance and the ability to thrive in organic gardens.
Check them out when adding to your rose garden! Knockouts and Queen of Swedens are in this category, but there are so many more. Go for the ones that have been tested and rated for bloom, fragrance, and disease resistance.
