Aunt Honey One of
my favorite Buck roses. Griffith called this a shrub, but I view it to be
more Grandaflora like. Rich-True Soft pink blooms. Doubled and full of a
fantastic rich Damask fragrance. May have some die back, but comes back
bigger and better each year. This is a personal favorite for our breeding
program. Disease resistance moderately strong. |

Baby Love
This is a splendid dwarf
shrublet, bearing with great freedom and continuity, saucer-shaped,
buttercup yellow flowers. They are small, with 5 petals and borne one
to a stem, close to the foliage at all levels on a low, rounded plant.
They have a slight fragrance. The small, mid-green, semi-glossy
foliage is an ideal complement to the blooms.

Blanc Double de Coubert
A beloved member of the Rugosa
family because of the nearly continual production of pure white large double
flowers saturated with fragrance. Its tidy habit makes it easier to
tuck into a modern landscape than most of the other family members.
But it's still a Rugosa - tough, hardy and naturally resistant. Red
hips ripen in the fall.

Bonica
Somebody stop this bush from
blooming. Out of this world repeating especially when dead headed. Very
pleasant soft pink with a touch of white blends. The plant has a slight
fruity / apple sent. Developed in France by the Meilland family 1981. Great
for group planting, strong arching and spreading habit. This is a rose for
the person who just cant seem to grow roses, it will restore your belief

Carefree Beauty
To us at Boylan Farms this rose
is clearly one of the
best pink shrub roses. As a cornerstone of our breeding program we continue
to be amazed at its performance. This rose is great for the bingeing or the
advanced grower. The names says it all. The flower large 4" blooms, great
repeat, looks great as a solo bush or in a corner group planting. Bucks
beauty is easy to grow, very hardy, and blooms its head off.

Champlain
This repeat-flowering shrub
gives moderately vigorous, bushy growth that is very healthy. It was
breed to exist in the hard climate of North America, so tolerates extremely
cold winters. It carries dark red, double flowers, each holding up to
30 petals, that are large, slightly fragrant and are borne in profusion on
this compact plant. The leaves are small and dark yellow-green. |

Distant Drums
Here's a striking color amongst
the hardy roses released by the late Dr. Griffith Buck. Distant Drums
grows much like a Floribunda in habit, drumming out clusters of pointed
brunette buds that swirl open to reveal ruffles washed with orchid pink.
All this is set to music against dark green foliage makes for a top-tapping
commotion in the landscape. |

Golden Unicorn
The late Dr. Griffith Buck
devoted his life's work to the hybridizing of hardy, clean roses at Iowa
State University. Much of his efforts are just coming into
appreciation today. Many of his varieties are pink-the easier color to
achieve in any rose breeding program. Yellow-toned roses that are
truly hardy are quite rare. The large golden flowers and glossy green
foliage of Golden Unicorn laugh at 'old man winter' and look great in the
landscape.

Hawkeye Belle
The flowers of this rose are
large and beautiful in their construction, and are borne in clusters on
strong stems. The plump, pointed buds open to show high centers at
first, then, as they expand, the many petals resemble a coiled spring at the
heart of the bloom. The petals gradually part to create overlapping
layers, which give a charming effect at the fully open stage. The
color is ivory white, lightly suffused with azalea pink as the flowers open.
There is ascent and flowering continues through summer and autumn.

Hope for Humanity
The deep wine red buds of this
splendid Parkland Series rose appear in small clusters of four to five, then
open to fragrant cupped flowers of blood red that bloom continuously
throughout summer starting in June. The lustrous green foliage has
good resistance to disease and joins with the flowers for a striking result. |
