I know that I am not an expert rose grower, which is why I go for the hardier varieties (climbers, miniatures, floribundas). The floribundas are hardier than the hybrid teas and they can bloom continuously through the season, unlike the hybrid teas which have a bloom cycle of about every 6-7 weeks.

Unfortunately, I did not save the tag for this rose (how unlike me) so I don’t know the actual name of this variety. One thing I do know, it is a beautifully shaped, creamy white, lightly scented rose. Lovely.
