Angel Wings lets you grow a miniature rose garden from a packet. Petite fairy roses arrive in shell pink, soft rose, and white, gathering in sprays above compact shrubs that gain strength and flower power with each passing year.
At 1½–2½ feet, these hardy roses fit the front of a border, a broad bed, or a generous patio container. The first season may offer a preview; established plants reward patience with an all-summer succession of dainty flowers.
