I like to draw out the garden on paper like this before I design my garden, so I have a better idea of what I want.

When you design a rose garden, you need a reference guide, that tells you as much information about the rose as you need. (another reason to send for those free Rose Nursery catalogs

You can substitute any of these roses with others of the same size.

Remember it's Your garden......you decide!

The size of your planting area will be important when planning your small garden design.

You could easily substitute Miniature roses as the border for this garden.

Perennial or annual plants make nice Companion plants to add for more colors.

It is important to choose gardening roses that match your garden.

• First, choose ones that are hardy to your planting zone
•  Next find ones in the size you need
• And ones in the right colors. 
  

~Constant bloomers are great, but others are just So.. beautiful, that it's worth having them (even for that One good show)

• If you want fragrance, this is another consideration.
