The first prerequisite of successful growing of potted rose is the choice of suitable types of roses or rose varieties.
In the case of Hybrid Teas, the choice is rather limited in the sense that one should gainfully choose those rose varieties in which plants are dwarf, balanced, erect, upright and compact in growth character, but not robust and too tall. (like 'Golden giant')
Color and shade of potted rose is another consideration which will depend on personal choice and type of rose you select.
In case of Floribundasm will grow nicely in rose pots of suitable size. However it is not suggested to select those types of roses which are very vigorous and tall(e.g. 'Pink Parfait','Queen Elizabeth') and those which branches are disorderly fashioned (e.g.'Zambra')
Polyantha and Miniature roses are ideally suited for growing in pots. One must look into the character of the plant and flower before making a selection.
