One
of the most beautiful of the flowering hedges is the Bonica
rose. These flowering hedges were voted the world’s
favorite rose in 1997. They are easy to grow and very disease
resistant. The colorful blooms of these flowering hedges are
slightly fragrant and bright pink. These flowering hedges
are hardy to zones four through nine.
Another
popular group of flowering hedges are the Spiraeas. These
flowering hedges have blooms that are very attractive to butterflies.
The color of the bloom varies based on species and cultivar,
and can range from white to pink to yellow. The mature height
of these flowering hedges also varies by species, but most
will be from two to four feet tall. The slightly fragrant
blooms will appear in early June, and repeat blooms will be
sporadic throughout the summer months. They are hardy in zones
four through nine.
