Roses in garden collection

Here I list roses, which I collected during 18 years and they still grow in our garden. We don't propagate all of them and we don't have all of them for selling. Roses for selling you can find in catalogue. 

My first object of interest were historical roses. I tried to have all of them. Even not suitable to grow in our cold climate (tea-noisette, ramblers and others). Finally I understood, that I don't need to have them all. Enough to have the most hardiest or the most beautifull and not so hardy. I throw away all tender varieties, almolst all old hybrid perpetuals and heabrid teas and so simillar to each other gallica roses with a doubtful identification. I had to pass teh way, when I had to order roses with the same name from many different sources and visit different roses collection, to make sure, what I finally have the right one. 

My second object of interest: very cold hardy rose groups Rugosa and Spinosissima (sin. Pimpinellifolia). We had -25 till -30 degrees C during usual winters 5 years ago. I try to collect as much as possible, but... I understand, that there are aso many different names, but a lot off so simmilar varieties. There are so small morphological diversity in these groups and so many breeders, who still want to give a new name to the rose, which have no... So now my interest in these groups is lower and with a big critical selection, which one is still worth a place in our garden. Where are still enough them now altready.

My last object of interest: rosa species and very interesting or good modern rose varieties of small breeders. Of course, not all of them, just hardy to our climate and with a good identification. Trying to find out and throw away all falsications and wrong identifications. I don't interest in all the mess with rosa genus: I don't need any artificially made species, and especially caninas subsp.... I like to know and grow much more simpilfied collection of rosa species.

And the main object of interest all these years are local Lithuanian and Baltics heirloom roses.

Two years ago we renovated garden collection. Only rugosa and spinosisima roses collections where left in the same place and bushes are big. White garden also left in the same place. Other garden parts were totally replanted: we created a historical rose gardens (gardens with roses according...) and local heirloom garden collection (this part of the garden
