Modern
Shrub
This group is
somewhat of a catch-all and consists of generally healthy modern shrub,
bush and landscaping roses, most of which are free-flowering, blooming
throughout the summer. Not all are fragrant. Their tolerance of cold
varies depending on their ancestry, so a little research is necessary
to determine a variety is suitable for your zone. The smaller ones
are suitable for container growing (check the "Other" column
and key below).
Our Favourites:
Sevilliana, Autumn Sunset and Westerland
See also Floribundas, English Roses and Hybrid Teas for other good bush roses. Roses
are available while quantities last. Varieties marked
as 'sold out' may be available again next season. Remember to order early.
Our prices may vary from season to season depending on the plant size. See
the bottom of this list for Key.
Varieties marked as 'N/A' will not be available for 2008
