Notes:
  • Floribunda — “Second only to the hybrid tea and grandiflora in popularity, the floribunda is characterized by its profuse ability to bear flowers in large clusters or trusses with more than one bloom in flower at any one time. This class is unrivaled for providing massive, colorful, long-lasting garden displays. The distinct advantage of the floribunda is its ability to bloom continually whereas the hybrid tea exhibits a bloom cycle every six to seven weeks. Floribundas as a class are hardier, easier to care for than hybrid teas.” --- American Rose Society, www.rose.org.

  • Floribundas are a result of crossing hybrid teas with polyantha roses. The name was coined in 1930 by Jackson & Perkins.
