Rose Garden Design
Planning A Rose GardenWhether your rose garden design plans and ideas are for an informal rose garden design, or for formal rose gardens, the rose colors for garden designs, should always be top priority.
The picture of a front yard rose garden above is a wonderful example how roses enhances the curb appeal of a home. This charming garden is in my neighborhood and I always enjoy taking in the view whenever I go by.
The rose garden above is designed so beautifully, it is elegant and charming at the same time, yet it is quite simple with just two plant varieties in this long border along a driveway. The charming soft pink roses are 'Poulsen's Pearl' roses, very pretty little floribunda roses, planted with 'Blue Nile' lilies. They will produce blue pompom flowers on tall stems and bloom all summer. The pink roses are also repeat bloomers. This is an excellent planted rose garden border that's easy to re-create in any garden.
I just adore this front cottage garden with roses. The red climbing rose by the window is 'Altissimo', a wonderful red climber that was just recently planted. Next spring the roof above the window will be loaded with red flowers spilling over. I will post a new picture next spring. Just behind the picket fence are pink 'Bonica' roses, and further back, the white 'Fabulous' rose with dwarf boxwoods lining the brick walkway. The 'Golden Shower' rose is climbing the fence. This is a very charming idea for a rose garden.
The picture above is a courtyard garden design with roses and perennials. The red roses are 'Knockout's and the apricot-pink roses are 'Just Joey'. These roses are ideal for this planting situation, because they are rather compact and don't take up a lot of room. The fountain is the focal point in this charming and attractive rose garden.
Before designing a garden with roses, you should first ask yourself what kind of garden you would really like. There are many different styles of garden designs for roses to choose from.

When planning a rose garden use scaled graph paper (1/4 inch grid is good). You can find scaled graph paper at any art supply or craft store. Rose garden
planning is a very important step, in achiving the great look you want.

Choosing roses that are adaptable to your climate should be your most important consideration. Select easy to grow, Award-Winning roses from my recommended list of roses,

Rose wrapped Arches, a stunning way to use roses in the garden
Another beautiful way to grow roses, and a great idea for a rose garden design, is to create arches of climbing roses that could frame different areas of your garden. Simply use bendable steel rods to form an arch; then wind and tie the rose canes around the rod. I promise, this is a very stunning way to show off roses, and my own favorite.
