Don't miss the beauty and great abundance of blooms and color that single 5-8 petaled roses provide. After 42 years of growing roses I have observed as a rule of thumb that rose bushes can only produce so many petals. This rule would mean that a rose variety that produced blooms with 5 petals would produce 10 times more the number of flowers than a rose with a bloom of 50 petals. Use single miniature roses also as a great addition to the perrenial bed or anywhere in the garden where you would like lots of color and blooms. Minimum order of 3 miniature roses!
