Old-fashioned roses by definition are good xeriscape plants. They
have survived for generations with minimal care. Most bloom better
with one deep watering every month in the summer, but some, like
the butterfly rose, will bloom all season without supplemental watering.
Also called mutabilis, it is especially impressive, 7 feet tall
and 4 feet wide, with its flowers in December. The simple flowers
are silver-dollar-size. They begin as yellow, evolve through apricot,
to finish as pink.
The 'Belinda's Dream' rose is even better (showier and fragrant)
than even the butterfly rose. See it at:
