Roses I can grow at home?

[Bughra]

I don't know any species, do you?

 

[Sheal]

Most roses are hybrids and grafted onto a different rootstock. The only species I can think of right now are Rosa Rugosa and a wild rose Rosa Canina.

I would say think first about what sort of roses you want, tea, climbing, rambling, it depends where they are to grow and how, then think of colour, yellow, red, white, pink. Then you can check out nurseries and see what they supply. As Sheal says 'Species' is probably not the most useful definition.

@Oliver Buckle I think Bughra is looking at growing them in preference to just planting them in a garden.

Roses are a pain in the thumb to me. They are not worth the trouble, personally speaking. I never recommend roses to anyone because the success is very limited due to the growing conditions. Roses are disease-prone unless you have ideal growing conditions. I don't care what anyone says, the grafting process is not normal and grafted plants have shorter lifespans as well as many other problems.. Always wear gloves and safety glasses when working with roses.

@oneeye roses are an acquired taste. They need a fair bit of attention but are worth it. I've had many roses through the years and only ever had one that was prone to disease, which was black spot. It was an heirloom rose and I knew when I bought it, it was prone to the disease. But if grown correctly, regarding pruning and soil maintenance, rose diseases can be kept to a minimum.

The rose in question below...'Rob Roy' a floribunda. First picture with new leaf growth.

Always wear gloves and safety glasses when working with roses.

I've never found that necessary.

I once grew miniature tea roses inside. They did very well, somewhat hydroponic but switched to using soil for some reason. They grew very well and slowly black spot was found after a year or so, to their demise.
Regardless, I wouldn’t say to never grow them indoors, just watch them and be proactive with trimming them, etc. I found that the light used was more important than the ph or substrate, though starting with the °K that were suggested, I saw they were growing towards a cooler lighting zone.
Good luck!

No, you didn't ruffle my feathers @oneeye. Every gardener has their likes and dislikes and it also follows how much attention you're willing to give certain plants. I couldn't have a garden without roses. If looked after they give such a lovely display from late spring right through to autumnal frosts.

Fourteen years ago, I planted OSO Easy Double Red outside and even I can't kill them. They get minimal growing season attention, other than quickly cutting off spent flowers. Once we had some insect eating on them. The solution was to spray water on the leaves up from the bottom. Problem solved. In spring, the plant does get a severe trimming.

This one grows fast and huge. Plenty of flowers- even into early winter.

Someone I know planted some of those in pots indoors and that is kept pruned to the desired size. She said they've never had a problem and flower like mad.

With respect PGB1 Bughra's location is Turkey and a different climate to yours and mine.

Good point, Sheal.
Guess it depends on when Bughra lives in Turkey. The climate is so widely varied. Much of Marmara is very much like my part of Michigan (much warmer in winter).

Other areas are far warmer & wetter- and some areas are much colder.
But there is one constant: The people are very nice!
