Unique Colors of Different Roses
Roses come in a variety of hues, so you have a wide selection to choose from when deciding which one is best for your landscape and personal preferences. There is a rose hue for every taste, whether you prefer the serene atmosphere of an all-white garden, the clash of opposites on the color wheel, or the free-spirited appearance of a patchwork cottage garden. Hiring specialists will be your best bet if you want an outstanding variety of roses because some varieties of roses need to be bred by experts in residential landscaping services. Choose the colored rose that calls to you from among the varieties shown here.
Orange Roses
Roses in cheery hues of orange and apricot shimmer in the bright flower garden, adding the ideal amount of vitality and warmth to companion plantings of violet or blue flowers like salvia and Russian sage. Choose the exceptionally hardy Floribunda “Easy Going,” with its bright peach blossoms, if black spot is a problem in your region. With ‘Wildfire,’ a fragrant repeat bloomer, you can’t go wrong in the cutting garden.
Blue Roses
Breeders periodically declare a breakthrough in color, which has intensified the urgency of the search to create a pure blue rose. Researchers are attempting to transfer blue genes from blue flowers like pansies or irises to roses, although roses lack the gene that creates blue petals. Findings thus far have produced violet-blue roses, such as the Suntory blue rose “Applause.” Another rose type that seems magnificent in catalogs but has an unsettling violet tone in natural settings is the “Blue Moon” variety. Any royal blue roses you could see at the florist are the consequence of synthetic coloring.
Purple Roses
Although underutilized in gardens, deep plum purple roses like “Ebb Tide” and “Twilight Zone” stand out more than traditional red roses. Gardeners have recently been extolling the virtues of “Plum Perfect,” a Kordes introduction that grows well without spraying. Purple and burgundy roses, which are dark-colored roses, perform best in midday shadow. Petal burning from the midday heat can result in blackened edges and curling.
