Which roses are suitable for which garden?

In rainy locations you should put special emphasis on rain-proof roses, while especially in regions with cold winters frost-hardy rose varieties recommend. In general, robust varieties are suitable for less than ideal places. These include the so-called ADR roses. Rose varieties that were awarded the ADR predicate had to prove themselves for three years in eleven different test gardens and without the use of chemical sprays. In the final assessment, health, floriculture and fragrance play an important role. But even among the untested roses - whether they are old or new varieties - you will of course also find many robust beauties.

Roses for regions at risk of frost

In areas with severe winters, roses should either appropriately protected or, if you shy away from the trouble of overwintering, frost-hardy varieties are planted straight away. This includes many shrub and once-flowering plants

Climbing roses. Since flowering ends early in the year with these rose varieties, the wood can mature well before winter and is therefore less at risk from frost damage. Proper care (e.g. B. the Planting the grafting point in the soil) can affect the winter hardiness of the plants.

Roses for rainy areas

In rainy regions, densely filled rose petals suffer a lot from the often heavy rains. In this case, prefer single and semi-double roses to more double ones. In addition, white-flowering varieties, which can turn brown if the humidity is too high, are not very suitable for these locations. You should also choose a good one when choosing a variety Resistance to star soot be careful, as the leaves stay wet all the time and cannot dry off well.

Roses for partially shaded locations and north-facing locations

Many roses still grow in partially shaded locations if they get four to five hours of sun a day there. The abundance of flowers, however, is less than in full sun. Roses with dark red or deep purple flowers even prefer these places, because dark flowers absorb the sun's rays more strongly than light ones and therefore burn easily. Roses can even be found for northern locations, such as the climbing roses “Veilchenblau”, “Alberic Barbier” and “New Dawn”.
