| 'Aldo' is a Floribunda rose is a short-growing bush which produces semi-double, brightly colored orange flowers blended with red. Each bloom has 25 petals. Good rose for borders and beds. Available only in Austrailia, and very difficult to find even there.
In general, roses are a large group of flowering shrubs, most with showy flowers that are single-petalled to fully double-petalled. Leaves are typically medium to dark green, glossy and ovate, with finely toothed edges. Vary in size from 1/2 inch to 6 inches, five petals to more than 30, and in nearly every color. Often the flowers are very fragrant.
Most varieties grow on long canes that sometimes climb. Unfortunately, this favorite plant is quite susceptible to a variety of diseases and pests, many of which can be controlled with good cultural practices. |
