These are only five of the many, many types of antique roses you might want to try in your garden. Once you see how easy they are to grow, and how glorious they are in bloom, you'll undoubtedly want to try still more -- and I'll tell you about a few more next week.
Meanwhile, if you want a sneak peak at lots of other wonderful old garden roses, try Rosaraie at Bayfields for a good photo gallery and some great articles about old garden roses. I will admit -- I have ordered from this company and received huge, strong plants that grew impressively. But, since they stop shipping in May, all you can do right now is look and dream and plan for next year.
