The Best Rose Varieties to Grow for Every Garden
With thousands of rose varieties out there, it can be hard to choose. Whether you love a classic, fragrant bloom or a modern, low-maintenance beauty, there’s a rose for you.
Fragrant roses are always a winner. Varieties like ‘Mr Lincoln’, ‘Double Delight’, and ‘Jude the Obscure’ fill the garden with irresistible scent and gorgeous, classic blooms.
Easy-care roses are perfect for beginners or busy gardeners. Look for disease-resistant varieties like ‘Iceberg’, ‘Flower Carpet’, and ‘The Fairy’ which thrive with minimal fuss.
Climbing roses add vertical drama to your garden, perfect for arches, fences, and walls. Try ‘Pierre de Ronsard’ or ‘Albertine’ for an old-world, romantic look.
Bush and shrub roses are ideal for borders and mixed planting. ‘Queen Elizabeth’ and ‘Graham Thomas’ offer repeat blooms and great structure.
For cut flowers, choose long-stemmed, repeat-flowering roses like ‘Pascali’ and ‘Peace’. Their classic blooms are perfect for homegrown bouquets.
Mix and match to suit your style — there’s a rose for every space!
