Buying rose plants does not need to be intimidating if you know what to look for.

Decide on color. How will the color of your roses affect your garden? Look at different catalogs, as well as your neighbors’ gardens, to get an idea of the colors you like best.

Consider size. In addition to color, the size of the roses you choose is very important. Consider the height of your roses at full-growth.

Think about climate. In order for your roses to grow healthy and mature, you will need to select a variety that will thrive in our South Texas climate.

Consider maintenance. There are several types of roses which are very high-maintenance. Although they will look beautiful in your garden, they will require a lot of your time. The classification known as “Modern Roses” are very beautiful, long blooming, and highly fragrant, however they are very high maintenance and are prone to disease.
