Thread: Great weeping roses for hanging baskets??

Thanks you guys! I have looked at Weeping China Doll and forgot about that one. I was looking at it for a tree rose but might have to use it in a hanging basket. I will definitely look into Little White Lies too. Thanks again, Judy

Green Ice did it here. DH got rid of it because the stamens turned black so quickly, he said it looked like an ashtray. :-( But the all-time champ is 'Little White Lies.' It demonstrates Sean McCann's genius, as well as the cleverness of his names. The photos on HMF do not show the beautiful cascades of tiny white "lies" (er. minute single blooms) which hang in sheets from a hanging pot. I see that Rogue Valley Roses...

I would probably stick mostly with minis, but there are a few smaller shrub roses that tend to trail and might work also. I can't think of any names right off, but do some looking and you might find a couple of them. Of course, Sweet Chariot is a champ in a hanging basket, but you already know that.

The polyantha Weeping China Doll looked beautiful in a hanging basket in a photo I saw somewhere. Ingrid
