Categorized under "Roses"

Definition as written by dovey:

A class for all those roses which don't fit into any other class.

Types of roses subclassed as shrub roses are the hybrid musks, hybrid rugosas, and modern hybrids of species roses.

The "unclassifiable" shrub class includes diverse habits, sizes, and flower forms. Shrub roses can be upright bushes, loose, mounding shrubs and can often be trained as climbers.

Some of the more modern shrub roses include Kordesii shrubs, groundcover Meidiland, the Knockout series and English roses. They are particularly useful mixed with herbaceous plants in boarders and mixed beds.
