Landscape Rose

Landscape roses were created in the late 20th century that offer low maintenance, and so many landscape roses have, (1) lower growing habit, usually under 2 feet, (2) repeat flowering, (3) some disease and pest resistance, and are (4) non suckering, growing on their own roots. Good cultural practices are important for roses in order to prevent disease and other pests. Avoid wetting the foliage when watering, place the plant in an area with good air circulation, and remove dead or diseased plant matter as soon as possible. Branches are covered with thorns, making pruning difficult. Some variants will sucker slowly to forms colonies.
