We moved to this area (Northern Idaho)last August and wonder which roses do best here. Is it possible to grow Tea Roses? |
Hybrid Tea Roses are generally hardy to -10 to -20F, but will need some protection in the form of mulch during the winter season in your area. Here's a list of some of the hardiest roses that should thrive in your gardening region: Shrub Roses: 'Applejack' rose spotted with crimson 'Carefree Beauty' pink 'Champlain' dark red 'Eutin' red 'Golden Wings' yellow 'Morden Amorette' pink 'Prairie Dawn' pink Tea Roses: 'American Spirit' red 'Chicago Peace' pink and yellow 'Chrysler Imperial' red 'Dainty Bess' pink 'Double Delight' white and red 'Fragrant Cloud' coral-orange 'Garden Party' white 'Midas Touch' yellow 'Mr. Lincoln' red 'Peace' yellow and pink 'Swarthmore' red 'Tropicana' coral-orange Hope these suggestions inspire you to plant an entire rose bed! |
