Miniature Roses

A page of stock pictures of Miniature roses, which are a style that can be traced back to the small China rose, Rosa chinensis 'Minima', particularly the form 'Rouletii'. While this is an old form, it is only in the last 100 years that miniatures have become very popular as new colours and styles have been produced by crossing the old forms with Rosa wichuraiana and some of the smaller floribundas. Not all miniature roses are small bushes. They all have small flowers but many of the bushes can reach 60–80 cm or more with time. Some forms are budded onto vigorous bush rootstocks to produce Patio Roses. Others are budded onto tall stems to produce miniature standards and weeping standards.
