Roses have captured hearts and imaginations for centuries—with their legendary fragrance, stunning blooms, and starring role in everything from ancient myths to modern bouquets, it's no wonder they're known as the queen of flowers. But beyond the classic long-stemmed reds lies a whole world of diversity and intrigue. In this Deeper in the Garden session, we'll explore the rich history of the genus Rosa, from wild species to heirloom treasures to cutting-edge cultivars. We'll talk culture, care, fun facts, and share some of our favorite selections from the garden. Whether you're already smitten with roses or just rose-curious, there's plenty here to fall in love with.
