Carefree Beauty (Katy Road Pink) |
 Shrub/Buck
1977 This Griffith Buck rose was introduced in 1977. It was through a
plant exchange with Conard Pyle Nurseries in 2001 that the 'Antique
Rose Emporium' discovered that their favorite found rose "Katy Road
Pink" was in fact 'Carefree Beauty.' Forming an open, but extremely
graceful bush, 'Carefree Beauty' appears to have few insect or disease
problems and is not particular about soil or growing conditions. It is
free blooming, probably one of the most floriferous pink roses that we
grow, with new buds appearing all the time. Large hips are a nice
treat!

Bermuda Rose
Named for its frilly edged petals, ‘Carnation’ has semi-double
flowers tinged lilac pink fading to rose. The three inch wide blooms
have a light reverse and are very showy. You can expect a continuous
bloom on this five-foot tall shrub with healthy foliage.

 Polyantha
1890 ‘Clotilde Soupert’ reminds us of the Bourbon rose, ‘Souvenir de la
Malmaison,’ only smaller. The flower is a rounded, cabbagey rose of
creamy white with the very palest touches of pink in the center of its
100 petals which enfold its fine perfume. The compact growth habit and
exquisite bloom make up for the tendency to ball in humid weather.

 Noisette
1904 This rather late Noisette has large, loosely double flowers that
open nearly orange, fading to a rich apricot-yellow. The dark canes
have light green leaves and few thorns, and are best trained as a
climber. It never fails to attract attention every time it flushes into
bloom.

 China
Prior to 1837 This lavender-pink, fragrant rose is double, cupped, and
beautifully shaped; many rosarians suspect Bourbon influence in its
breeding. It was long popular as a container plant for European window
gardens and its low, compact form is well suited for any small garden
or for a massed effect in a larger border.
