December – Uetersen
For the last month of 2011, we go back in time to feature a tried and true rose ideal for almost any garden.
November – Gisborne 2000
Around the year 2000, several roses came onto the market celebrating the year 2000 around New Zealand.
October – Zephirine Drouhin
Towards the end of the month, the roses start blooming again starting at the top half of New Zealand.
September – Strawberry Ice
Another tried and true rose features this month, one that has stood the test of time since its introduction in the late 1970’s
August – Sparkler
White is very much a winter colour, but also one to cool the garden down during the long hot days of summer.
July – Warm Welcome
While the weather is cooling down, this month’s featured rose is one that warms up any garden when in flower.
May – Blackberry Nip
Purple is a difficult colour in roses, people either seem to like it or not.
April – Friesia
Good yellow roses are few and far between, let alone with a strong fragrance as well.
March – Dublin Bay
Of all the colours, red is the most popular when it comes to roses – who can resist a red rose?
February – Mary Rose
The David Austin or English roses are popular with rosarians around the world as they combine the flower form and fragrance of old roses with the repeat flowering of modern roses all summer long.
