Abstract. The introduction study of old garden roses has been done in the

conditions of the forest-steppe zone continental climate ( 69 cultivars) and

in xeromorphous edaphoclimatic conditions of the subtropical zone (85

cultivars and varieties). The valuable characters of old garden roses in each

zone have been determined. The increasing tendency for flower doubleness

and their quantity has been educed in a subtropical zone. The long-term

introduction study of 21 cultivars in both zones has been done and as the

result of it 14 cultivars have been recommended for a wide use in greening.

The collections of old garden roses (cultivars of old garden groups, that have been made

before 1867) have a great historical and scientific significance: they are the valuable gene

fund for a breeding work, and their introduction study allows to take a close look on

polymorphy and adaptive capability of Rosa L. genus representatives [1]. For the time

being the large collections of old garden roses are collected in N.N.Gryshko National

botanical garden NАS of Ukraine, (N.N. Gryshko NBG) and in the Nikita Botanical

Gardens – National Scientific Center of the RAS (NBG – NSC) [2-4]. These botanical

gardens are located in the zones with different natural and climatic conditions:

N.N.Gryshko NBG – in the forest-steppe zone with a moderate continental climate, and

NBG – NSC – in the subtropical zone with xeromorphous (Mediterranean type)

edaphoclimatic conditions. The work is intended to sum up the long-term introduction

study of old garden roses that has been done according to standard methods, in these

collections.

The collections of old garden roses of N.N. Gryshko NBG include 69 cultivars of 16

garden groups: Hybrid Perpetual – 16 cultivars (Baron Girod de l’Ain (Reverchon, 1897),

Tea (Marie Van Houtte (Ducher, 1871)), Hybrid Foetida (Persian Yellow (Willock,

Rabier (Turbat, 1910)). The collection also has 6 historical rose varieties and forms, which

were introduced in Europe before the beginning of XXth century: Rosa banksiae Aiton

Alba (1807), Rosa banksiae Aiton Lutea (1824), Rosa bracteata Wendland. (1793), Rosa

chinensis semperflorens (Curt.) Koehne (before 1658), Rosa fortuneana Lem. (1850), Rosa

indica odoratissima Lindley (1808).

It can thus be seen that in the conditions of a subtropical climate the introduction

testing of heat-loving climbing roses from groups Hybrid Chine, Hybrid Wichurana as well

as climbing varieties and forms is widely done. The historical traditions in the landscape

design in the Southern Coast of the Crimea happened to use old garden roses Alberic

Barbier, Albertine, American Pillar, Comtesse Elisabeth Woronzow, Dorothy Perkins, Duc

de Constantin, Félicité et Perpétue, Fortune’s Double Yellow, Maréchal Niel, Paul’s Scarlet

Climber, White Dorothy Perkins, Excelsa, as well as varieties and forms Rosa banksiae

Alba, Rosa banksiae Lutea, Rosa bracteata, Rosa fortuneana [5] in different types of a

vertical greening. The valuable character of many old garden roses in the conditions of a

subtropical climate is very early initial blossom. So Rosa banksiae Alba, Rosa banksiae

Lutea and Rosa fortuneana initiate blossom in the second decade of April. Rosa indica

odoratissima, Alberic Barbier, Comtesse Elisabeth Woronzow, Duc de Constantin,

Fortune’s Double Yellow, Marie Van Houtte, Pauls Scalet Climber, Persian Yellow,

Ruiletii are in the list of early starting to bloom. They also have remarkably abundant

flowering, and it creates a high decorative effect.

In the conditions of a moderate continental climate old garden roses are withstanding

enough. 40 old garden roses’ cultivars from the quantity of the studied ones proved to be

winter-hardy. And 17 cultivars (Alain Blanchard, Alberic Barbier, Baron Girod de l’Ain,

Captain Hayward, Felicite et Perpetue, Felicite Parmentier, Jacques Cartier, Le Rosier

Eveque, Louise Odier, Madame Alfred Carriere, Maiden’s Blush, Marechal Niel, Reine de

Violettes, Souvenir de Docteur Jamain, Versilocor, Violacea, Viridiflora) are shade

enduring plants.

As a whole, the introduction study showed that many old garden roses’ cultivars are

resistant to fungus deceases. Among their values are high decorative qualities of a flower

and as a rule a frank pleasant fragrance.

The long-term introduction study of 21 cultivars in both zones has been done. It has

been discovered that as a general matter the morphological and biological features of the

cultivars are stable in both zones during cultivation. However, in the process of comparison

of morphometrical characteristics it was discovered that the increasing tendency for flower

doubleness and their quantity had been educed in a subtropical zone. It is represented in

Table 1.

As the result of cultivars’ perspective assessment for use in each climatic zones, for a

forest-steppe zone 14 cultivars are recognized as prospective ones and for a subtropical

zone – 19 cultivars. 14 cultivars are recommended for a wide use in both zones’ greening.

These highly decorative cultivars with scented flowers are Agnes, Duc de Constantine, Frau

Karl Druschki, Fortune’s Double Yellow, Jacques Cartier, La Reine, Louise Odier,

Madame Alfred Carreire, Madame Hardy, Maiden’s Blush, Marie Baumann, Persian

Yellow, President de Seze, Rouletii.
