Shrub
This group of roses is like a potluck supper, a little of this and a little of
that. Parentage, hardiness, and characteristics of these roses are not similar enough to
put them into an existing classification and the characteristics of these roses differ
enough from each other that they are left with this ambiguous grouping. Most are fairly
hardy and have recurrent bloom.
Bonica: This rose originates from France. It is a medium
sized rose with bushy growth. The double pink flowers have little to no fragrance,
but they have recurrent bloom.
