Roses generally can fall into three categories: Species Roses, Heritage Roses and Modern Roses

Species Roses

This includes the native roses from all over the world that just flower once a year on large shrubs. All new cultivars are created with the use of species roses at some point.

Heritage Roses

Roses that were introduced prior to 1867. This includes teas, hybrid spinosissimas, bourbons and noisettes. Many heritage roses are repeat flowering and producing great hips.

Modern Roses

With modern roses we include hybrid teas and grandifloras, polyanthas, floribundas, climbers and ramblers, miniatures and patios.
