The care, pruning, feeding and flowering of Thornless Roses is the same as for all other Hybrid Tea and Floribunda roses however without the thorns. Instructions on how to plant and care for all your roses are available by clicking here.
All Smooth Touch® varieties are considered 95 - 100% thorn free and are therefore much safer in gardens for children, elderly gardeners and people who have an impaired lymphatic system resulting from cancer surgery or radiotherapy.
Each year new varieties are added to the range. The new thornless variety this year is Climbing Smooth Heart of Gold.
The range is available as bare-root by mail
order in Winter. Potted roses are available all year by phoning (03 5964 8382).
