Whether Damask rose, centifoil or Gallica rose - behind all the illustrious names in this picture gallery are enchanting garden roses with nostalgic charm.
1 / 11The 'Celsiana' variety was bred before 1732 and is one of the Damask roses.
Nevertheless, the almost two meter high shrub rose is suitable for beginners.

4 / 11The farmer's rose 'Ferdinand Pichard' is downright picturesque with its stripes and marbling.
It forms medium-sized shrubs.

6 / 11This is how extravagance works: The Gallica rose 'Tuscany Superb' from 1837 only blooms once in the summer, but you can't ignore its violet, semi-double flowers.

7 / 11The Damask rose 'Leda' looks so delicate, but it is very robust, weatherproof and suitable for beginners.
The reddish outer flower edge tips are typical.

8 / 11The almost thornless Gallica rose 'Complicata', bred around 1800, has a wild rose character.
It is suitable both as a solitary shrub and as a hedge.

11 / 11No, the Novalis floribunda rose that blooms several times is not an old variety - but it looks like it and beautifies the garden with its lavender tones.

Historical rose varieties emerged around the end of the 19th century.
Sometimes densely filled, sometimes with wild rose character, as a noble rose, in soft pink or yellow - to the layperson they are not recognizable as such at first glance.
The rose classes range from the classics, the strongly scented damask rose, to the centifolia with often heavy, overhanging flowers.
Even though most historic roses bloom once - given their splendor, you can't blame them - there are also varieties that bloom more often that give the garden a fairytale atmosphere right into autumn.
The mostly spectacular flowers with their delicate to intense scent are replaced in autumn by small, ornamental rose hips.
