Winter Care of Roses Schroeder’s Flowers would like to thank Weeks’ Roses, Star Roses, Proven Winners, and Bailey’s Nursery for the information & pictures used. What are the different types of roses? Floribunda Make any landscape designs stand out with the most colorful of rose types. Developed during the last century, these bushy shrubs have the large, showy blossoms of the hybrid teas, but bloom more freely, setting clusters of three to fifteen blossoms rather than a single bloom on a stem. Floribundas are versatile; an individual shrub will fit easily into almost any sunny border planting. However, they are perhaps most striking in mass plantings. Hybrid Tea One of the most popular rose types, these are tall, long-stemmed roses ideal for cutting--the roses you usually see at the florist. The flowers are usually borne singly, one to a stem, rather than in clusters. Blooms have a high-center point. In the garden they are often featured as single specimens or in a traditional rose cutting garden. Many varieties reveal a beautiful fragrance. Grandiflora A grandiflora is a cross between a floribunda and a hybrid tea. Grandifloras are tall elegant plants which bloom repeatedly during the season, and generally feature classic hybrid tea flower clusters with stems which are slightly shorter than those of hybrid teas. Shrub & Landscape These roses have changed the way many people view roses. Shrub roses, especially when compared with traditional varieties, are impressive for many reasons: their natural disease-resistance, their willingness to grow in a variety of climates with a minimum of attention from the gardener, their compact growth habit (very little pruning required), not to mention the great beauty of their flowers, which are borne consistently over a very long season. Coming in all shapes and sizes, shrub and landscape roses work well in any landscape. Landscape roses grow close to the ground, like ground cover, and have a very spreading habit. Climber Climbing roses help dress up any garden. They produce long, arching canes with numerous flowers that can be trained to a trellis, fence, or other supporting structure. Grow them up and over an arching trellis to make a striking entryway; train them up a lattice to adorn a plain wall. Miniature Perfection on this scale can't fail to captivate! Miniature roses are the smallest of rose plants, growing anywhere from six inches to two feet tall. This rose type is hardy, flowers continuously and is perfect for container gardening, make lovely borders, and solve the space problem for those with a small yard or balcony. Miniatures are grown on their own root. Tree Roses Tree roses are made up of a hardy root stock grafted to a long stem that is, in turn, grafted to a rose bush at the top of the stem. They are very elegant lining a walkway or as a feature amongst other plantings. The tree rose is a lovely addition to the garden, but extra care is needed to insure its survival over winter. We have an excellent selection of colors in two different sizes 24” at $34.95 and 36” at $44.95. Many people will leave the tree rose in a container on the patio all summer long. Basic Pruning Pruning Tools: Most roses can be pruned quite easily. Allow the plant to grow and fill Use any pruning shears out during its first and second years. At the end of the third season, designed for roses. A 2" blade shear off the top third of the plant, trimming all branches to achieve a works best, or use a long-handled uniform shape. To encourage new blooms, trim away old flowers as lopping shears for larger, more they fade throughout the blooming season. mature canes. In additon to the steps outlined below for hybrid tea roses, click here for more tips based on other rose class. When to Prune: The best time to prune is late winter, before new growth starts in the spring, sometime after the last Step 1 hard frost. Do not prune once new Examine the rose for sucker growth (any growth is 2" -3" long. Fall pruning is shoot that grows below the bud union – necessary only when plants are occurs on grafted roses only). If suckers are extremely tall, to prevent wind present dig down and pull them out from the damage during winter. root. Suckers rob the plant of its strength. What to Prune: Step 2 Weak, diseased or winter- Remove dead wood (distinguishable by its damaged wood, which looks brown darker color) and broken or diseased canes. and dry on the outside, should be Prune 1⁄4" above an outfacing bud, 2"-3" removed 1 -2 inches below the below the damage. damage.

For more blooms and a larger shrub, leave 5-12 canes and prune to 1⁄2 -2⁄3 of present height. Hardy Shrub– soft apricot/ white Clusters of soft apricot buds open fully to blooms of an- tique white with just a hint of apricot before fading to a clear white.

Height: 24” Shape :Mounded Comments: Own Root Zone: 4-9 Hardy Shrub - Bright Red Glossy, dark green foliage and neat, upright, mounded habit is attractive even without the blooms. So imagine it covered in clusters of bright, red, 3" blossoms. A garden jewel that shows excellent resistance to black spot. Height / Habit: 30” Bloom / Size: Double, 3” Petal Count: 25 ish Comments: Own Root Zone: 4-7 Bloom Cycle: Recurrent Hardy Shrub - dark pink / orange Incredible color, petite size, super disease resistant, what more could you want? This everblooming gem has double blooms whose outer petals are dark pink changing to orange and finally to bright yellow at the center. The small, per- fectly rounded form would make it an outstanding informal hedge along a walkway or garden path. The color is so easy to combine it should have a place in every perennial border. Highly disease resistant. Height / Habit: 24” Bloom / Size: Double, 3” Petal Count: 20 ish Comments: Own Root Zone: 5-9 Bloom cycle: Everblooming Hardy Shrub - Creamy White This delightful rose was selected by Macy's Department Store for their centennial. Lemon-yellow buds open fully to creamy-white and age gracefully with a hint of pink. Disease-resistant foliage, red-rimmed when immature, ages to a beautiful semi-glossy, medium green. New Eng- land Rose Society Award Winner in 2002. Bloom / Size: Double, 4-5” Petal Count: 22 Comments: Own Root Zone: 5-9 Bloom Cycle: Recurrent Hardy Shrub - Deep Pink Adorable, round, deep pink buds are held in cluster of 5 to 30, opening to ruffly blossoms so full they almost hide the centers. Offers tremendous flower effect, like sunshine on a cloudy day. Backed by medium green foliage, proven to be highly resistant to black spot with little to no defoliation. Compact, upright habit, and good repeat, My Girl makes a dazzling color statement in any border. Everyone is talking about My Girl. Bloom / Size: Double, 2-3” Petal Count: 28-30 Comments: Own Root Zone: 4-9 Bloom Cycle: Recurrent Shrub: Cream with cranberry eye This amazing novelty represents over 60 years of hy- bridizing effort that began with a once-blooming near -rose species that was yellow with a brown-red ‘eye’. The cranberry eye zone set at the base of each creamy white petal might remind you of Rose of Sharon and it keeps that novel marking until the flower finishes. The surprising twist for this unusual Shrub is SUPERB BLACKSPOT RESISTANCE. The bushy plant loves to grow and, in milder cli- mates, may require some shaping to keep it in bounds . Height: Full & bushy, irregular upright habit Bloom / Size: 2-3” Petal Count: 15 Fragrance: moderate sweet spice Disease Resistance: Good Hardy Shrub: apricot & coral Hybrid tea-shaped buds in tropical tints of coral and orange with a deep yellow base swirl open to full, sweetly fragrant, apricot blossoms.

  • Marion Garden Rose Garden
    Marion Garden Rose Garden The Rose Garden is a work in constant change to demonstrate how to grow and maintain a variety of roses that are suitable for home gardens in the Willamette Valley. Selection of plants has been based on suitability for landscape use, resistance to disease, repeat blooming, and availability to the home gardener. If we find that a rose bush has a lot of disease problems or does not bloom well it is removed. The visitor will find mostly hybrid teas but also floribundas, grandifloras, shrub roses and an English (Austin) rose. There is also one upright climbing rose named ‘Antique’. Two clematis vines (Viola and Asso) have been planted on either side of the climbing rose trellis. Clematis are a good compliment to large climbing roses and add interest and color to the garden. All the rose bushes have ID tags which include the name of the rose, type, any awards it has received, name of the hybridizer, and the year the rose was introduced. There are a couple of roses that do not have ID tags because they were donated and names were not known. They are good disease resistant plants with a good bloom habit so are used for cuttings for rose propagation workshops. There is also a Lonicera fragrantissima (winter honeysuckle, January jasmine, or Chinese honeysuckle) growing on the northwest corner of the rose garden. It has fragrant white flowers in January and February. It was there when this garden was started and is a nice shrub for the home garden. It is pruned in the spring after it finishes blooming.

  • VII International Symposium on Rose Research and Cultivation July 2-7, 2017 Angers (France)
    VII International Symposium on Rose Research and Cultivation July 2-7, 2017 Angers (France) Abstract book VII International Symposium on Rose Research and Cultivation Welcome Dear congress participants, dear colleagues, In the name of the organizing committee, I am very pleased to welcome you in Angers for the VII International Symposium on Rose Research and Cultivation. We are around 130 people from more than 20 countries. We have organized this meeting with the objective to gather breeders, producers and researchers working on roses from all over the world. The symposium will cover all areas of rose research with updates on the most recent developments in all fields: agronomy, physiology, genetics, genomics… The meeting is organized around 7 scientific sessions and a round table. There will be 36 oral presentations and 70 posters presented during the symposium. I am sure that you will have interesting and passionate discussions that will be the beginning of fruitful collaborations. The symposium will also be the opportunity to discover beautiful rose gardens around Angers: the Loubert rose garden (Les Rosiers sur Loire) with more than 3000 different varieties with a large collection of botanical roses and the international rose garden of the city of Nantes (Roseraie Paul Plantiveau, La Beaujoire) with around 1600 varieties with a specialization on perfume roses. You will also have the opportunity to visit different rose nurseries in the area of Doué en Anjou, the first region of garden rose production in France. There are not only roses in Angers! We hope that during this meeting you can visit this charming city with its historical center.
