Disease Resistant Roses This is for the rose lovers out there. I have not checked on what zone these roses can be grown in, however I
do recognize the names of some of them and I know they are hardy to our zone. So please research these if you are interested.
These roses are black spot and/or mildew resistant. The letter "b" will follow the name if it is black spot resistant
and "m" if it is mildew resistant. Both letters are for those that are both. Alchymist b,m Angel
Face b Apothecary's Rose b,m Apple Rose b,m Beach Rose b,m Bonica b,m Carrousel b Cecil Brunner b,m Charisma m Chicago Peace m Crested Moss Rose
b,m Duet b Europeana b Evening Star m Felicite parmentier b,m First edition
b,m Flower Carpet red b,m Futura m Gene Boerner b Ivory fashion b Knockout
Rose b,m Miss All-American Beauty b,m Mister Lincoln b,m Pascali m Peace
b,m Pink Leda b,m Pink Peace b Pristine b,m Queen Elizabeth b,m Razzle Dazzle
b,m Sarabande b Seashell m Souvenir de la Malmaison b,m I do not
grow many roses myself so I cannot swear by this information, I read this somewhere. I added the Knockout rose,
which I do have experience with and also the Peace Rose. The Knockout rose seems to withstand most anything. Lots of blooms
for the money. If you are into antique rose types, check out Antique Rose Emporium. I came across them a
number of years ago and was inspired by their methods for trying to preserve the old roses of long ago. www.antiqueroseemporium.com Hope this helps, and if you have any better information please pass it on. Thanks!
