Miniature Roses Few roses can add so much charm to the garden as miniatures. Most are under 2 feet tall, and bloom heavily for strong color impact in practical- ly any garden settings. Use them to fill in spaces in rock gardens - they bring color to places where full-size roses won’t fit. All a Twitter Loads of shiny bright audacious orange blooms sparkle against the abundant deep glossy green leaves…and that dazzling color lasts all through the life of the flower. Perfect in a patio pot or tucked into a gaudy garden border. Makes a terrific tree rose, too. Best flower size in cooler conditions. .

Color: Orange and orange blend Tiddly Winks Miniatures usually have a certain quota of 'cutesy' but Tiddly Winks may go a little over- board. Yet it's more than just a cute little ball of clean green fluff. It's a flowerful garden work horse pumping out clusters of shapely double blooms.
