"Sea Foam"

 

This group of roses, varying widely in ancestry and description, were created by various breeders who crossed Species and other older roses with various types of modern roses. Freestanding and often recurrent flowering, Shrub Roses are useful in the garden as relatively carefree and vigorous, blooming later than most other roses. Although technically shrub roses too, the English, Rugosa, Explorer and Species Roses have been put in separate categories in our catalogue because they have distinctly different needs and uses.

In this category are the Hybrid Musk roses, Teas and Hybrid Tea roses, Polyanthas, Floribunda roses, Modern Shrub roses, and Pimpinellifolia roses.
