Rose Variety Names


Where do rose varieties fit in? I'm often asked to explain different kinds of rose bushes to folks who confuse rose types, with variety of roses.

Within each rose type, classification of roses, there is a different kind. For example, the 'Mister Lincoln' is classified as a Hybrid rose type. So if you are looking for a cut rose , you might consider the Hybrid tea 'Mister Lincoln', a kinds of red roses with very long stems, making them perfect for a vase of roses.
