 Hyb Tea
Porcelain outer petals with unfurling inner petals of a blush
peachy-pink make this Camellia-like rose breathtakingly beautiful. As
delicate as the flower color is the Tea scent of this rose. The foliage
is clean, dark and healthy. We are especially fond of this rose.

 China
Prior to 1837 Thomas Rivers called this rose "changeable as the
chameleon." The full, very shapely flowers open with crimson outer
petals and neat pink centers, then darken to solid crimson. The heat of
the sun speeds the process: what appears to be a bicolor hedge in
spring and fall will be all red roses in midsummer. The neat, erect
bush and constant bloom help make this one of our most popular
varieties.

 Hyb Musk
1937 One of the best roses for hedging, ‘Ballerina’ produces clouds of
small, single, pink roses with white eyes on a compact arching bush
with thick foliage. It can be pruned to shape or allowed to spill over
naturally. When the leaves begin to thin in the late fall, the entire
bush is lit up with tiny orange-red hips like bright Christmas lights.

 Shrub/Basye
1992 A cross between ‘Tiffany’ and ‘Jersey Beauty’, this fast growing
shrub is upright and sturdy, has few disease problems, and is covered
with a plentitude of bluish-green foliage. The flowers are freely
produced throughout the growing season and are simply lovely with a
rich, distinctive fragrance of their own. ‘Belinda’s Dream’ was named
for the daughter of one of Dr. Basye’s friends. Having seen the plant
in full flush of bloom, we can only envy her distinction.

 This ever-blooming rose is one of the most popular with landscape designers in our area. Its double, lilac-pink flowers form clusters that can be seen at a distance, and the compact bush fills out nicely with a minimum of pruning and maintenance. It is not very particular about soil conditions, but prefers a sunny open space. Some rosarians have suggested that this is the old China rose, ‘Pink Pet,’ but we feel that it shows traces of Wichuraiana or Multiflora heritage and fits more naturally in the Polyantha class. The study name comes from a neighboring town, Caldwell, Texas, where this rose was found.
