What are the easiest kinds of roses to grow? Is there such a thing as a low-maintenance rose?

I sorta disagree with Volcom. If you use show roses, or modern hybrids... they are higher maintenance... and in numbers may be a part-time job.



I'd recommend salt-spray roses. Sometimes called rugosa roses. These are roses that are grown on their own roots, so they aren't grafted, they don't get blackspot, good for hedging or as 'shrubs', and hardy as all get-out.



Hansa is a variety with a magenta red flower and nice fragrance.



Rugosa roses are probably not the best for cutting and don't look like the roses you buy from the florist, but make excellent low-maintenance additions to almost all landscapes.



I hope that this helps

Good luck-

I had about 50+ rose bushes that used to surrpund our old house, And it doesnt matter what type! They are hard to maintain in large groups, I was always the one who would trim them. So the tyoe shouldnt matter, but how many you get is what makes roses bushes intense!

Reply:Simplicity Roses or Roses for landscaping. They are not the hybrid tea roses type that you see at florists. Jackson %26amp; Perkins sells them.

Another type for low maintenance rose is Rose Double Knockout.
