Patio or miniature roses are a great addition to the garden,because they are small in size they are easier to grow in pots and planters than some of the larger roses but are equally at home planted directly into the garden.They produce a lot of flowers and repeat more quickly than other roses, patio climbing roses are excellent for courtyards and smaller fences or trellis work.

Ground cover roses are low growing plants which are very useful on sloping banks or cascading over low growing walls to give lots of colour.
