Parkland Roses

The Parkland series of roses are hardy roses developed in Canada at the Morden Research Station by Agriculture Canada. Designed to withstand the harsh Canadian winters, these roses are extremely hardy, some up to Canadian Zone 2b. Also, these roses tend to be very disease resistant and are rebloomers.

Agriculture Canada has also developed another series of roses called Explorer with similiar traits.

Due to government budget cuts, the program was shut down in the early 2000s. However, the remaining breeding stock was retained and used to create the new Canadian Artists series of roses.
