Rose is the most popular cut crop; it is difficult to imagine a festive bouquet without it. Rose is the most famous horticultural crop. The number of varieties bred is tens of thousands, which is much more than any other. And every year their number increases thanks to the selection work of dozens of nurseries. In terms of the variety of color, shape, size, aroma of flowers, the abundance of flowering, the size of the bushes, the rose has no equal. Therefore, despite the difficulties of care, we breed her in our gardens, and she gives us her bewitching “bouquets”.
Rose flowers are the most beloved garden culture by all without exception. Even photos of rose flowers amaze the imagination with their splendor. This page provides a general description of rose flowers. The rose flower in the photo is presented below in various angles, which allows you to assess its attractiveness. The description of the rose flower can also be found in the brief characteristics of the new varieties.
It is impossible to imagine the perfume industry without roses. Roses are still used in medicine, and rosehip syrup and tinctures are healthier than many modern multivitamins. At the same time, the rose continues to amaze us, constantly changing to match our tastes and whims, and breeders create new original varieties.
Roses are distinguished by a variety of flower shapes. For more than one century, we have been admired by the goblet shape; now, densely double rosette-shaped and cupped flowers, especially with a squared center, are in vogue. Flowers with a flat shape have a natural charm. Spherical and pompom flowers are attractive. Some roses resemble flowers of a carnation, camellia, peony, etc.
The color range of roses is very rich, there are only pure blue ones. The color of the flower can be monochromatic, two-color and “striped”, mixed and “painted”, and even with a color changing over time – chameleon varieties.
The leaves of the rose are complex, pinnate, consisting of a stipule, a petiole and three or more leaves. It is widely believed among hobbyists that cultivars have five leaves, but this is not the case. Most often, varieties of hybrid tea roses differ by five leaves, but this is not a strict rule. The leaves are leathery, smooth, or wrinkled.
Park roses and their photos
A park rose is a group that brings together different classes of these plants. They have a natural appearance, are rather large in size and are unpretentious. Do not require winter shelter. The assignment of varieties to this group depends on climatic conditions.
Blossoming is usually single with white, pink and red flowers. In autumn, many rose bushes are decorated with decorative fruits. Park roses in central Russia include certain wild types of roses and their garden forms, as well as varieties of wrinkled (HRg), alba (A), fetis (HFt) and prickly (HSpn) roses.

Garden varieties of roses
The disdainful attitude towards park roses, which are even called “rose hips”, is surprising. Given the variety in which garden rose varieties are presented, they deserve wider distribution, because wintering without shelter is a weighty argument in their favor. And one-time flowering can hardly be called a minus, because we plant other one-time flowering shrubs.
Five garden rose varieties wintering without shelter:

Elongated elegant buds turn into large, purple-red with a violet tone, double flowers with a free arrangement of petals, with a strong aroma.
