Villa Hutton
Garden Roses
We have about 160 rose
bushes, 10 of which are
climbing roses.
Roses were probably not
planted at the villa until
the 1950s when the villa
was divided into
apartments. They were
primarily planted in the
section of the garden that
was used exclusively by
the ground floor and were
all extremely sick when
we purchased the land in
2005. Many looked like
sticks and we weren't
certain that some were
still alive.
We have transplanted
about fifty rose bushes
and purchased others
and taken clippings of
some for a total of 160.
The removal of several
trees and the general
overgrowth of the garden
was what most severely
affected the roses. We
have a few that are still in
poor health and hope
they will be in good
condition by 2008.

Below is the rose bed at the entrance just after transplanting in 2005 and in the Spring of 2007. They are a mix of Iceberg and Single Cherry
