Gardener’s Best 100 Roses Th e Antique Rose Emporium is devoted to the rose and its incredible garden virtues. At our Nursery and Gardens, we often say, “we don’t have rose gardens, but gardens with roses in them” which illustrates how importantly we feel that roses belong in gardens in all forms, styles and functions. Th is collection of 100 roses represents large and small shrubs that anchor the landscape, vigorous climbers that evoke drama and romance, roses for niche gardening, roses with fragrant nuances that di ff er from the ordinary, roses that are especially cold tol- erant as well as roses that are thornless or nearly so. Th ese designations illustrate each rose variety within that group based on col- or, shape and size of the plant making it an easy way to select a rose.
