Grandiflora roses- a new garden group, obtained relatively recently, in the 50-60s of the 20th century, by crossing hybrid tea roses and floribunda roses.

In their decorative qualities, flower shape and size, they are close to hybrid tea roses, but grandiflora roses inherited their abundant and long-lasting flowering from floribunda roses. However, the new hybrid is distinguished by significantly greater winter hardiness, power and vigor of the plant than its original forms. The Queen Elizabeth variety is considered the ancestor of this group of roses.

Grandiflora rose bushes reach 2 m in height and are distinguished by their strong structure. The flowers, reminiscent in shape of hybrid tea roses, are collected in small inflorescences, not as lush as those of floribunda roses.

Grandiflora roses bloom very profusely and for a long time, from the second half of June to mid-September. Predominant colors: red with shades, pink, white. Roses of this garden group are widely used for decoration, in the form of group and single plantings, and for cutting. There are standard forms of grandiflora roses.

Plant height - 80 cm; flowers are slightly fragrant, 10-11 cm in diameter, golden yellow with an orange edge.

Love bush height - 80 cm; the flowers are slightly fragrant, medium-sized (9 cm in diameter), bright red with a silvery-white lining.

easy to grow, but at the same time a very spectacular rose, which can be recommended to a beginning rose grower. It is distinguished by its unpretentiousness (can grow in almost any conditions) and shade tolerance, which is not often found among garden roses.

The height of the bush is 1-1.5 m. The stems are strong growing, erect, covered with shiny dark green foliage. The flowers are slightly fragrant, rather large (10 cm in diameter), densely double, pure pink in color.

Stella: flowers - slightly fragrant, large, pink with a reddish border.

bush height - 1-1.2 m; the flowers are slightly fragrant, large (13 cm in diameter), velvety, red with a golden center.

flowers - slightly fragrant, double, coral-pink in color, 1-3 buds on one shoot. Recommended for forcing.

	All about garden plants

The first hybrid of the grandiflora rose was developed more than 60 years ago by the American W. E. Lammertz. Queen Elizabeth owes its decorative properties, immunity, and winter hardiness to the hybrid tea variety Charlotte Armstrong and the floribunda rose Floradora.

The grandiflora group includes varieties of garden roses that bloom profusely and continuously throughout the summer. The first buds open in the first half of June, the last ones in autumn. The flowers are semi-double, double, large. Diameter 10-15 cm.

Old varieties of roses have almost no scent, while recently bred varieties have a delicate, pleasant aroma. The bushes are compact or semi-spreading, the shoots are powerful and erect. 1 or 3-5 flowers are formed on the stem. Rose grandiflora can be grown in regions 6 and 7 of winter hardiness zone.

Advantages and disadvantages

Hybrids have many advantages. They bloom long and profusely. They rarely get sick. All varieties are suitable for cutting. Bushes are decorative and are widely used in landscape design. There are some minor downsides. Bushes that are covered early and incorrectly for the winter become damp. The decorative quality of flowers suffers from rain.

Popular representatives

All the roses described below can be seen in the Nikitsky Botanical Garden. It was founded by H. H. Steven in 1824. It was engaged in the selection of garden roses, grandiflora, including N. D. Kostetsky, mother and daughter Klimenko, K. I. Zykov.

Already in the first ten days of June, fragrant buds of soft pink color, consisting of 60 petals, form on the stems. During the season, more than 100 roses open on one plant.

Marina Steven

The variety is grown in the 6th winter hardiness zone. The shape of the buds is like that of a hybrid tea rose. On the stem, 1 bud opens with petals of soft pink and cream color. The variety was recently released, in 2006. Author - Z. K. Klimenko.

An old domestic variety, bred in Crimea (1964). Peony-shaped roses, double buds of 30-34 petals with a diameter of 14 cm. The bushes are tall (1 m), bloom profusely. The second wave of flowering continues until the end of autumn.

Subtleties of cultivation

For planting, nurseries and gardening stores purchase healthy seedlings in containers or with an open root system. Dried roots are reanimated - the seedlings are placed in a bucket of water overnight.

Before planting, they are dipped in a mixture of clay, water, and mullein.

Growing space

Only sunny places protected from the wind are suitable. The structure of the soil is not important. The pH level is neutral or slightly acidic.

Landing dates and rules

Grandiflora rose seedlings are planted in the garden in the spring, when the soil warms up to 8-10 °C, or in September-October. They dig medium-sized holes - 0.4 * 0.4 m. When planting several plants, place them at a distance of 0.5-1 m.

First, drainage (crushed stone, expanded clay) is poured into the hole, then half of the fertile soil. The roots are straightened, directed downwards, covered with soil and compacted. The root collar is buried. The hole is watered and mulched. In spring, shoots are cut to 3-4 buds; in autumn, this is not done. The sections are coated with varnish.

Maintenance is not difficult. Properly planted bushes grow in one place for decades. For abundant flowering, roses are fed and bushes are formed.

Watering and fertilizers

The culture loves moisture, especially during flowering. In summer, 1 bucket of water is poured under an adult bush once every 7 days. The next day, the soil around the roses is loosened. Fertilize several times during the spring-summer-autumn season.

Grandiflora pruning

In autumn, green shoots and dry branches are cut out at ground level. In summer, the bush is formed, giving it shape. The branches are cut to the outer bud, 5 cm away from it.

To stimulate the formation of new buds, remove dried flowers.

Preparing for winter

At the beginning of October, the buds are trimmed and the leaves are removed. The bushes are hilled, mulched, bent to the ground, and secured with pins. When sub-zero temperatures are established, a shelter is constructed from covering material folded in several layers. The frame is made of arcs, panels, boxes.

Protecting plants from pests and diseases

To prevent powdery mildew, the above-ground part is sprayed with a solution of Fundazol. To prevent fungus, rose grandiflora is treated with Fitosporin-M.

When black-brown spots (black spot) appear on the leaves, use the drug “Profit”. Bushes are protected from insects by Fufanon.

Reproduction methods

Grandiflora is propagated vegetatively. Most often, gardeners root cuttings taken from healthy, mature bushes. For cutting, choose strong stems on which all the buds have faded. The shoot is cut straight from above and at the bottom at an angle of 45°. 2 internodes are left on it.

Cuttings are rooted in mini-greenhouses. The following mixture is used as soil:

• turf land;
• peat;
• sand.

Old bushes are propagated by dividing the rhizomes. They are dug up. The root is cut into 2 parts. The resulting seedlings are planted in a permanent place.

Use in landscape design

In group plantings, the varieties Valentina Tereshkova and Gurzuf are used. Bushes covered with double flowers are combined with clematis, delphinium, lupine, sage, lavender, and geranium. Plants with blue and purple inflorescences best set off the grandiflora rose.

Summer residents and gardeners love to decorate their garden plots with flowers. In many courtyards you can see large flower beds and flower beds. Some people even create indescribable beauty from flowers, forming flower beds of continuous bloom. One of the main beauties is the rose. She is rightfully considered the queen of the flower world. It is to a greater extent that both amateur and professional gardeners give special preference. Therefore, many people want to choose the best varieties of roses. How to make the right choice and what to consider?

The main criterion for the abundant flowering of a bush is the environment and soil characteristics. As many gardeners note, no matter what variety of roses is chosen, fertile soil for it can be created with your own hands and the beds can be concentrated anywhere you wish. This solves the problem of the difference between the colors you like and the soil conditions unsuitable for them.

Roses with so-called complex colors are very demanding on the composition of the soil. The petals of such flowers have a combination of several shades. They can be very different and combine smooth or abrupt transitions. Modern breeders have learned to breed amazing species of this plant, which have not only complex colors, but also incredible shapes. On unsuitable soil, such plants acquire a depressed state, unsightly shape and dull color. Their life cycle is significantly shortened.

Very often people choose. Varieties of these flowers are intended mainly for growing in partial shade and loamy soils. Such conditions are typical for many other species. If we consider in general the soil conditions and the location of the flower bed, then these flowers love light, breathing soil. It is strictly forbidden to plant seedlings in clay, sandy and sandy loam soil, since it poorly allows moisture to pass through and practically does not allow air exchange between the root system and the soil. Experts recommend, in this case, double digging with the addition of black soil, peat, turf soil and well-rotted manure. The proportions should be kept approximately equal.

The best place to plant roses is the southeast side of the patio, garden or personal plot. The place should not be dark, shaded by buildings, trees or ornamental shrubs.

As for the climate, one should take into account the resistance of a particular plant type to changeable weather conditions, cold, heat and lack of air humidity. Places with a northwestern orientation on a summer cottage are absolutely contraindicated for flowers. Plants are very sensitive to drafts and cold winds, so roses will not grow well in such areas.

Classification of rose varieties. What types are there and how to distinguish them?

The opinions of many experts and flower growers boil down to the fact that before you start growing these beautiful flowers, you need to find out as much information as possible about them in order to avoid mistakes. After all, in the end, every gardener, regardless of qualifications, wants to get high-quality, fragrant and beautiful roses. Types and varieties are divided into several categories. In each of them there are better options that have proven themselves to be positive in all respects.

The most beautiful and common types of roses are:

• Floribunda.
• Hybrid tea.
• Grandiflora.
• Ground cover.
• Climbing.
• Shrubs.
• Selection by David Austin.

When choosing a variety, you need to take into account your preferences and tastes, then your favorite flowers will appear on your garden plot.

Floribunda roses. Varieties, photos, descriptions

The history of these flowers began in 1924, when a Danish originator named Poulsen first developed original flowers of this type, which were called hybrid-polyanthus. At first they belonged to the general category of tea roses, and were introduced into a separate group in 1976. Some experts note that floribunda roses are intermediate varieties between two types (hybrid tea and). A distinctive feature of these flowers is their diversity in everything. This is especially true for combinations of shades and tones. As a rule, they are rich, colorful, juicy.

General characteristics. The height of the bushes varies from 40 cm to 1.5 m; about 35 inflorescences can be collected on one stem. The flowers themselves have from 8 to 24 petals, the edges of which are distinguished by medium terry. In shape, some varieties resemble a narrow or wide glass, while others can bloom with flat or cupped buds.

The description of varieties of floribunda roses also shows that individual specimens can have clear golden shades, which are distinguished by a glossy surface and rigidity of the petals. Such plants have an average height (about 1 meter). They are also characterized by larger flowers, which are collected in small inflorescences.

It should be noted that floribundas are continuous flowering roses. They are also resistant to frost, fungal and viral diseases. This is an excellent solution for decorating your summer cottage or home courtyard.

Hybrid tea roses: varieties, photos, description

This group has a very interesting history. Back in 1867, the Frenchman J.-B. Andre Guillot was involved in breeding flowers that were unique at that time. For years he experimented with the La France variety, namely crossing remontant and tea rose varieties. As a result of this, he created a beautiful plant that had many differences and its own unique features. Then Andre Guillot positioned his brainchild as a variety of Bourbon rose.

In the description of varieties of hybrid tea roses, their main feature is the continuity of flowering. Also characteristic of these flowers are lightly-articulated or straight stems, which have increased strength. They create erect, slightly spreading shoots. Hybrid tea rose varieties were classified into a separate group in 1997.

The bushes are characterized by low shoots. They are slightly less than a meter long and have large racemes with 4-7 leaves. Most often, flowers are collected in small inflorescences of 4-6 pieces. The shades are very different (some varieties can combine several colors). There are new varieties of hybrid tea roses that have complex large double flowers.

Almost all varieties of hybrid tea roses have a beautiful appearance and are perfect for decorating not only a country yard, but also premises. The average period of initial, active flowering lasts about a month. Then comes the time of transition to the next stage - the appearance of new flowers (15 days for early varieties and 30 days for late ones). They then bloom continuously until the first frost.

The best varieties of hybrid tea roses:

• Double Delight.
• Blue Moon (Blue moon).
• Gloria Dei (Gloria Dei).
• Paradaiz (Paradise).
• Nikol (Nicole).
• Cherry Brandy.
• Alpine Sunset.

Medium-growing varieties:

Grandiflora rose varieties

A relatively new type of flower, bred for decorating gardens. They look like a low-growing tree, about 1.5-2 m high. This group of flowers was obtained by crossing floribunda and hybrid tea varieties. Grandiflora embodies the best qualities of these varieties. They have a very attractive appearance and have a wonderful aroma. Notable properties are resistance to disease and frost.

The best varieties of Grandiflora roses:

Ground cover roses: varieties, photos, description

The name of this group contains the main answer to the question about the main characteristics of the plant. Groundcovers are low-growing roses that can cover a wide area of ​​a flowerbed with long shoots with many flowers blooming on them. The length of the shoot can sometimes reach up to 4 meters. Thus, nature creates a natural, beautiful carpet.

There are also groundcover roses, varieties of which, in addition to creeping along the ground, also shoot drooping shoots. This method of growth provides indescribable beauty to the bushes. Some species bloom once a year (they are used very rarely by summer residents). Continuously flowering varieties of ground cover roses are very popular.

There are also ground cover rose varieties (see photo), which are characterized by a variety of shades (light pink or pale crimson, red and dark red, light red or pure white). The buds are characterized by a variety of sizes.

Another feature of these flowers is their resistance to frost. Many varieties do not shed their leaves until spring. They are good for decorating columns or walls in the yard. Despite this, the base of the plants should be covered for the winter.

Ground cover roses, winter-hardy varieties (photo):

• Bonika (Bonica).
• Haidekind.
• Swany (Svani).
• Sia Foam (Sia Foam).
• Elloy Fleurett.
• Red Bells (Red Bells).
• Sommerwind.
• Super Doroti.

Scrub roses: varieties, photos

Speaking about this group of flowers, we can note their main feature - a magnificent aroma, neat, upright growing bushes, abundant and continuous flowering. Flowers can be of various shapes (some are small, and some are large, the diameter of which reaches up to 12 cm). Petals can be double, semi-double or single. The leaves do not have a glossy surface and can be dark green with a burgundy tint.

It should be noted that scrub roses were introduced into a separate group in 1954. It was then that many very beautiful species of this plant appeared.

Thanks to its structure and powerful root system, the formation of a bush is very easy, the main thing is to prune it on time. For example, very often gardeners form a ball, cone or strict square. This is not difficult to do. Some gardeners use this plant to form a decorative hedge to highlight one or another area of ​​their garden plot.

Shrab roses (see varieties with photos) are grown by summer residents, both in separate flower beds and in combination with other types of flowers. They are often used when planning gardens or parks, which is why scrub roses are called landscape or park roses.

There are three groups of scrub (park) roses:

1. Curly– length of shoots from 5 to 16 m.
2. Climbing– length of sprouts up to 6 m.
3. Semi-climbing– the length of the zero shoot reaches just over 3 m.

Upright bushes can reach a height of up to one and a half meters. Among the advantageous properties is frost resistance (especially Canadian park roses, varieties of which can withstand temperatures down to 35 0 C below zero). They bloom continuously all summer until late autumn, pleasing the eye with their indescribable beauty and aroma.

The best varieties of scrub roses:

• Schwanensee.
• Grandessa (Dornreshen).
• Gruss an Geidelberg.
• Westerland.
• Feuerwerk (Fireworks).
• Modern Senteriel (Morden Senteriel).
• Parkland (Parkland).
• Belvevder (Belvedere).
• Artemis (Artemis).

Roses Grandiflora (Gr.) Grandiflora (Gr.) is a somewhat arbitrary garden group not recognized in many European countries. The varieties of this group in these countries are mainly classified as the Floribunda group.

This group of garden roses was started by Walter Lammerts, who crossed the Hybrid Tea rose "Charlotte Armstrong" with the Floribunda rose "Floradora". A new variety was introduced to the world in 1954 and was called "Elizabeth Queen". The flowers of this variety were different from those of other groups of roses and were called Grandiflora (large-flowered).

The varieties of this group have much in common with Floribunda and Hybrid Tea roses. They are distinguished by strong and long-lasting flowering, superior to other groups in terms of growth vigor and winter hardiness. Grandiflora rose bushes are distinguished by their strong structure and reach 2 m in height. Large, double, gracefully shaped flowers on strong straight stems are closer to Hybrid Tea.

The flowers are collected in inflorescences of 3-5 pieces, this makes them closer to the Floribunda group. This group includes relatively few varieties, but their number in the world assortment is increasing from year to year.

The requirements for growing conditions are the same as for Hybrid Teas; they are propagated in the same way. They bloom profusely from mid-June to mid-September. The predominant colors are pink, white, red with shades.

Usage

Grandiflora roses produce long, straight shoots, which makes them widely used for cutting. They can also be planted in flower beds. A good option is group and single plantings on the lawn. It is advisable to use grandiflora roses for planting in borders. They can be used to successfully decorate the background.

Grandiflora roses are promising for landscaping large areas. There are also standard forms of these roses.

Once upon a time, roses were just roses, but thanks to breeders they are now divided into landscape, garden, ornamental, damask, hybrid, natural and other types. Often, even within the same classification, they can differ so significantly from each other that the varieties in it are not even biologically related to each other and are not similar.

This does not apply to the Grandiflora rose species, in which all flowers have some similar features.

Description of new roses

Who would have thought that growing queen flowers for sale could be such a profitable business that breeders from all countries compete every year to create new hybrids with even more striking colors, aromas of varying intensity and resistance to diseases and weather conditions!

Rose Grandiflora was first seen in the world at the beginning of the 20th century, but under this name it is known only in the USA and CIS countries. This flower was created by crossing hybrid tea roses with representatives of the Floribunda group, which, in turn, appeared from combining musk varieties with hybrid polyanthas.

The description of the Grandiflora rose, with all the variety of varieties and colors, contains one common feature - large buds, which can be either double or hybrid tea, or cup-shaped or pompom-like.

This species has such positive qualities as frost resistance and resistance to fungal diseases.

Domestic varieties of rose growers

The very first Grandiflora rose, which became famous throughout the world, is considered to be the Queen Elizabeth variety. It was bred by American rose grower Walter Lammerts in 1954 and named after the reigning Queen of England.

From the very first demonstration, these flowers became a godsend for breeders, who since then have been trying to create new varieties of this species every year. Domestic rose growers do not lag behind their world colleagues. Grandiflora is distinguished by abundant and long-lasting flowering, is undemanding to care, not capricious, tolerates winter well and is resistant to most diseases inherent in roses.

Among the varieties bred by domestic flower growers, the following are very popular among the population:

In addition to domestic varieties, today you can purchase masterpieces of foreign selection in nurseries.

Roses from the French house of Meilland

When a family business passes from one generation to another, this is a guarantee of its success. The French house of Meilland is an example of this, since every third flower sold daily in any country in the world is either bred by its breeders or grown in one of the many rose nurseries. Grandiflora is a representative of numerous varieties with which the employees of the famous company work. The most popular varieties known to domestic flower growers are:

French breeders from the Meyland house annually demonstrate new varieties of Grandiflora roses at exhibitions, which allows flower growers around the world to get acquainted with and admire their ingenious living creations.

Terracotta luxury

The color of the petals and the aroma are what interest rose lovers. The more unusual the color, the more expensive they cost and look, for example, a rose Grandiflora Terracotta. The bud the color of unfired clay changes its hue to orange when the lighting changes. The size of a blooming double flower, which has up to 22 petals, ranges from 11 cm to 14 cm with a stem height of up to 1 m.

This plant is resistant to most diseases and does not suffer from excessive rain; it tolerates winter quite well.

Conclusion

Rose Grandiflora is considered a young variety whose greatest discoveries and prospects are yet to come. We can only hope that the breeders will not stop at the achieved results and will each time present new beauties with large buds of unusual colors to the public.
