The Polyanthas

Descendants of the early Scotch roses, the Pimpinellifolias, and their more recent hybrids, are shrub roses with characteristic small leaves. While most bloom only in summer, some are recurrent bloomers. Our favourite, Stanwell Perpetual, has fragrant double white flowers and continues to bloom all summer. Generally quite hardy, members of this family were used by Kordes of Germany to create Fruhlingsgold, Fruhlingsduft and other lovely graceful and cold-tolerant garden roses.

Roses are available while quantities last. Varieties marked as 'sold out' may be available again next year. Remember to order early. More varieties will be available by summer.

Our prices may vary from season to season depending on the plant size. See the bottom of this list for Key.
