Compliments of North Haven Gardens, 7700 Northaven Rd, Dallas, TX 75230, 214-363-5316
David Austin English Roses
These roses bring the romance and charm of the roses of years past to your garden. Their blooms are packed with layers of petals, appealing fragrances and soft coloring.
Climbing Roses
Many of our modern rose climbers originated from hybrid teas that have a tendency to grow unusually long canes. Climbers can grow to a
length of 18 to 20 feet and bloom as profusely as many hybrid teas. Unlike other types of roses, climbers are not pruned heavily each spring.
They should be selectively pruned after the first flush of blooms.
Florascape Roses
These hardy spreading roses quickly cover large areas creating a carpet of low maintenance color ideal for slopes and rocky areas. Great in
baskets for trailing color.
Floribunda Roses
This type of rose began as a cross between Polyantha and hybrid tea. The cross was such a success that an entire new call of rose was named.
These shrubs reach 2 ½ to 3 ½ feet in height, with dense branching. They are free blooming with small blooms in large clusters.
Grandiflora Roses
Queen Elizabeth, when it was introduced in 1955, was clearly an extraordinary rose. However, it did not fit any of the already existing
classifications. It was, therefore, given the distinction of naming a rose category for it. This type usually ranges from 4.5 feet upward with
long stems sometimes supporting several blooms, but slightly smaller than hybrid tea. Most Grandiflora shrubs support a heavy compliment
of blooms throughout the growing season and are an excellent source of flowers.
Hybrid Tea Roses
This is the best type for cut flowers since each stem has only one bloom. Bushes grow 3 ½ to 4 ½ feet tall and get bigger in ideal conditions.
The Hybrid Tea is the most popular type of rose sold in America.
Miniature Roses
These roses are small in stature but are prolific bloomers. They generally do not exceed 2 feet tall and bloom continuously with small
flowers. They are extremely low maintenance and are great for containers.
Shrub/Hedge Roses
These roses are easy-care, versatile and fragrant. They adapt well to many soils and temperatures. They have colorful hips throughout winter.
We recommend Espoma Rose-Tone organic fertilizer for all roses!
