Rosa rugosa var. alba | Rugosa Rose | 25 Seeds

Rosa rugosa var. alba, a distinctive variety of the rugosa rose, is a hardy and versatile deciduous shrub native to eastern Asia. Renowned for its resilience and ease of care, this plant produces striking, single, white flowers with a mild, sweet fragrance throughout the summer. These blooms give way to large, bright red to orange rose hips in the fall, which not only add to the ornamental beauty of the shrub but are also edible and rich in vitamin C. The rugosa rose's deeply lobed, leathery leaves make it a standout in the garden, and its dense, thorny growth provides a natural barrier and habitat for birds and small wildlife. With its adaptability to various soil types and salt tolerance, Rosa rugosa var. alba is well-suited for coastal landscapes and ornamental gardens. This variety combines aesthetic charm, resilience, and practicality, making it a beloved choice for those who seek a low-maintenance yet visually pleasing addition to their outdoor spaces.
