When it comes to roses, there's something for every garden style - whether you're going for drama, color, fragrance, or low maintenance charm. Let's break down the main types you'll see at our nursery:

1. Hybrid Tea Roses: These are the classic roses - long stems, one big bloom per stem, perfect for cutting. Think Florist bouquets! They're elegant, upright, and known for their stunning shape and fragrance. 
2. Grandifloral Roses: The bold middle child - a cross between hybrid teas and floribundas. They produce clusters of large blooms and grow tall like a rose bush with attitude. Perfect for statement hedges or back-of-the-border beauty.
3. Drift Roses: Small but mighty! These are low-growing, spreading roses - amazing for edging, ground cover, and containers. Constant bloomers and super tough, they're like the easygoing cousin everyone loves.
4. Climbing Roses: These are the romantics of the rose world. Give them a trellis or arbor and they'll put on a dreamy vertical show. They bloom in flushes and bring drama to fences, walls, and garden gates. 
5. Knock Out Roses: The MVP of low maintenance roses! Knock Outs bloom like crazy with very little care. They're disease-resistant, fast-growing, and ideal for busy gardeners who want nonstop color without the fuss.
6. Shrub Roses: These are the workhorses - big, bushy, and full of blooms. They come in all colors and bloom repeatedly through the season. Great for mass plantings, privacy, or mixed garden beds.
