Carruth Roses

You might think stripes are a new-fangled thing. But it is the old rose heritage that brings the genetic stripping to this spicy scented new-comer. Each petal is as unique as a snowflake--some more burgundy-splashed-white, some creamed-swirled-red-all on the same vigorous plant. The old-fashioned form & fragrance may remind you of its stingy blooming ancestors. Yet the nearly continuous number of blossoms lets you know there's modern kinfolk in there, too. Distinctive clean quilted foliage. ©Weeks Roses

There's no rose that's any yellower and no foliage that's any greener. The combo makes your eyes blink & your head spin in disbelief. Better yet, the flowers hold on to their searing yellow tones to the very end, dropping away from the well-behaved plant just in time to welcome the next round of bloom. Tidy enough to tuck into a landscape, lend an accent to a container or top a rose tree. Loads of bright, super-glossy apple green leaves mirror the blazing blossoms.

This 'everyday version of Sterling Silver is mucheasier to care for, much easier to grow and has much longer lasting flowers. Yet it still possesses the wonderful perfume and the mysterious pastel color that places its far-removed ancestor in rose history. The trophy hunters will go for the classic show form and the nice long stems. Deep green large leaves clothe the tall vigorous plant.

It's like finding a stash of doubloons. 'Strike it rich' radiates deep golden yellow blushed with a bits of ruby red. The strong fragrance suggests spice and fruit. A true Grandiflora that blooms in clusters on long stems that are suited for cutting. Great disease resistance.

Fun, fun, Fun!
A miniature orange pink and yellow bicolor that has been continously full of blooms! Great for a container (or two) on the patio where it will make you feel happy!

Ever seen a rose stand up and say 'Howdy'? Vavoom has the color that'll do the trick. Its bright orange juice tones might make your eyes pucker...but its sweet treat of glowing color last tothe very end of every long-lived blossom. Put that gleaming orange against deep mahogany red new growth & glossy green leaves & you've got a lollapalooza for the landscape. The rounded compact plant can tuck into limited spaces. Caution: Sunglasses may be required!

Water Colors-a painterly rose, in the style of Monet. Single flowers covering great foliage.
