The Ground-cover and Scrambling Roses

We have grouped this "mixed-bag" of roses together for functional reasons: the larger varieties provide excellent screening either on a stump, old vehicles or over buildings (or over anything else that get in the way!) If not supported they will travel across the ground, creating a ground-cover effect, or trail down banks or over walls. The shorter varieties make good ground covers or low borders along paths, etc. The ones listed here are from all different backgrounds and rose groups.

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.
