2023 Rose Lookbook: Your Guide to Choosing Beautiful Roses!




If you’ve ever received (or given) a dozen long-stemmed roses, chances are they were from a hybrid tea rose shrub.  Hybrid tea roses have strong, sturdy stems supporting a large, well-formed bloom. Typically, the hybrid tea rose bloom is a single bloom atop a long, sturdy stem. Due to their long, sturdy stems with large, well-formed blooms, hybrid tea roses are sought after by florists worldwide.

Breeders crossed profusely blooming polyantha roses with elegant hybrid tea roses to produce floribunda roses.  These shrubs are smaller and bushier than hybrid tea roses, and they are less 

In appearance, floribunda roses are relatively stiff shrubs; they’re smaller and bushier than most hybrid tea roses but less sprawling than polyantha shrub roses. While the flowers are smaller than those of hybrid tea roses, they appear in large sprays that give a very dramatic visual effect in the garden.

Grandiflora roses are relatively new hybrids resulting from the crossbreeding of hybrid teas and floribunda roses.  The grandiflora takes after its parent flowers in two main ways:

  • Like the floribunda, it has the unique ability to produce blooms in multiple clusters.
  • Like the hybrid tea, it produces extra large, attention-grabbing flowers.

Use in the garden as a tall specimen rose, middle to back border accent, or in a cutting garden.

Climbing roses are perhaps better defined as very tall roses with really long canes.  Climbing roses need to be tied to an arbor, trellis, or some other structure, but the extra effort can transform the look of a garden.
