Patio Trees
OK this month's selection is not actually a rose variety but many different roses in the form of an 18" miniature or 24" patio rose tree. With over two dozen varieties to choose from these striking accents provide clusters of color that are perfect for a sunny patio, porch of walkway. By adding height from both the pot and the trunk you get to enjoy great roses such as Ebb Tide™, Ruby Ruby™, Cinco de Mayo™, Julia Child and Chihuly® at a new height! All three varieties of 'bergs' are available as well including Brilliant Pink, Burgundy and the classic white Iceberg. These powerfully flowerful proven performers make a great statement either with color or as a bright eye catcher. Trees give you a second story of gardening space. The rose bush is well above the soil line, opening up the pot for adding colorful complementary plantings of annuals and perennials. Raise your rose expectations... by at least two feet!
