Hi all,
I'm looking to purchase a bushy rose plant as the Dublin Bay one I have now is not bushy at all as it's a climber. Any thoughts on the enchanted peace plant? I at least think it looks bushy but can't find much info on it being bushy or not.

Generally, Hybrid Teas tend to be more upright and not very wide in relation to their height. Of course there are exceptions to any 'rule'. If you want a bushy rose, you may be more satisfied if you select a floribunda instead of a Hybrid Tea as generally floribundas are shorter and wider than HTs. The description of the rose you mentioned states "upright" and the height. This site lists its height at 5' - 6' yet if you visit Help Me Find-Roses and look up Enchanted Peace, it states the height is about 2' (what was reported probably in the registration of the rose), and it states it is "bushy". https://helpmefind.com/gardeni... In many cases, looking up the rose on Help Me Find provides a good deal more information as well as photos from all over the world.

Petabread, if you want this particular rose, you might want to buy two of them and plant very close. I wish I have enough space to follow this advice. Smiling
