Buck Roses
Comments (14)Tika, If you go to the website of the Houston Rose Society: http://www.houstonrose.org/index.html, there is a tab on the side "Griffith Buck Roses". This takes you to an entire section on these roses. Unfortunately, a couple of the tabs ("Buck roses for Texas" and "Pictures of Buck Roses") don't work but the "Intro to Buck Roses" contains a wonderful article on Buck roses for the Houston area, which is extremely hot and humid like your own. This may give you a good idea of which ones will do well here. The article mentions the Texas A&M trials for these roses. Very interesting and informative. I have several myself that I am trying for the first time: Distant Drums, Golden Unicorn, Spanish Rhapsody, and Blue Skies. Nurseries here sell a lot of Buck roses and it is very difficult to choose! I have had Carefree Beauty for several years now and can personally attest to it's "wonderfulness"! Mine is totally covered in new healthy growth and buds right now. Good luck!...See Moreliteratejo?
