which grow into big bushes; shrub roses, whose thin stems can be trained to climb trellises; and miniature roses, which are pygmy-sized plants with small flowers. In those and other classifications, roses come in hundreds of distinguishable variants.
Roses are bushes that grow upright, climb, or trail; their stems are typically heavily studded with thorns, which are little, sharp prickles of varied sizes. The leaves are pinnately complex, or feather-formed, and typically have alternating, oval leaflets with sharp teeth. While cultivated roses frequently have double (i.e., several sets of petals) blossoms, wild roses typically have five petals. The sizes of rose blossoms vary from tiny miniatures with a diameter of 1.25 cm (0.5 inch) to hybrid flowers with a diameter of more than 17.5 cm (7 inches). Hips are the fleshy, occasionally edible, berry-like "fruit" (really the floral cup) of the rose plant. They are typically crimson to orange in color.
Roses are susceptible to various illnesses. Numerous diseases can afflict roses, with fungi being the primary cause of most infections. When powdery mildew forms on the surface of young leaves and stems, it resembles a grayish white mold. The black spot fungus makes noticeable black dots on leaves, which then fall off. Another prevalent disease of roses is rust. A prevalent insect pest on leaves and young stems is the aphid. Many diseases, most of which are caused by fungi, can infect roses. On the surface of immature leaves and stems, powdery mildew takes the form of a grayish white, mold-like development. Leaves with noticeable black spots that fall off are caused by the black spot fungus. Moreover, rust is a prevalent rose disease. On the leaves and young stems, aphids are a frequent nuisance insect, such as variety of largest and most important forms of plants and insect.
