SMOOTH-THORNED ROSE VARIETIES (ALMOST THORNLESS)

Hands often bear scars and scratches from thorns while caring for roses, which has inspired Pemdas Garden to gather a collection of these nearly thornless roses.

In the comments, Pemdas Garden will add more images and stories about these flowers. If you want to know more about any of these plants, feel free to message Pemdas Garden. Thank you.
