I'm not much of a gardener but I would love to occasionally get my
girlfriend roses that smell like roses should. Is there a type I could ask
the florist to order? Or is there a mail-order garden shop who could ship
a
potted rose plant of a type that smells like they should?
Thanks,
Tom
Tom most florist roses are bred and raised for their appearance. They want
uniform roses, that have a traditional tea shape, long stems, minimal
thorns. If after getting these qualities, if the genes for scent still are a
present, it's a bonus.
For roses to place in your garden, here's one website to consider checking
