Many growers who grow rose bushes on their plots seek to improve the rose garden by periodically buying new varieties. At present, there is such an abundance of varieties of the "queen of flowers" of various beauty that it is difficult to choose any particular varieties.

This article will talk about the Samba floribunda rose - a profusely flowering shrub with two-color petals.

The history of the creation of the Samba variety

The first variety, belonging to the floribunda species, was bred by the Danish breeder Svend Poulsen at the beginning of the last century. When breeding, the following roses were crossed:

  • tea room,
  • musky,
  • polyant.

As a result, new roses received from their “parents” such positive qualities as strong immunity, high resistance to diseases, strong shoots. The main advantage of the new perennials is the long, abundant flowering. For this quality, all such spray roses were combined into one group, called floribunda - blooming profusely.

Rose Samba

Rose Sambo Party Floribunda is one of the most beautiful in this group. This variety was bred in a German nursery, headed by the famous breeder Kordes. There is no data on which varieties of these flowers were used to breed the Samba Pati rose. One can only assume that the Samba rose has a lot in common with the similar variety Rumba. The main difference between these roses is the larger flowers of the Samba, collected in small clusters. Common to these two varieties is the bicolor color of the buds - yellow petals with reddish edging of their edges.

Note! The color of the flowers may darken or lighten depending on changes in weather conditions.
