Hardy Repeat-Blooming Old Roses
As can be seen, hardy old garden roses offer just about everything
a gardener could ask for in a rose: extreme winter-hardiness, excellent
tolerance to disease, exquisite blooms, and outstanding fragrance.
The one thing that is lacking is recurrent bloom throughout the
summer. Gardeners wanting to combine all of the qualities mentioned
above with rebloom capabilities need only to look toward the Bourbons,
Portlands, and Hybrid Perpetuals.
