In appearance, floribunda roses are relatively stiff shrubs; they’re smaller and bushier than most hybrid tea roses but less sprawling than polyantha shrub roses. Although the flowers are smaller than those of tea roses, they appear in large sprays that give a very dramatic visual effect in the garden. Unlike polyantha shrub roses, which have a limited color palette, floribundas are available in the same broad range of colors as hybrid tea roses—and with the same classic blossom shapes. In short, floribundas offer the best of all worlds: The flowers bloom freely with excellent shape and color, and the shrubs are quite hardy. These 14 floribunda roses are great picks for beginners and experienced gardeners alike.
