Description

Tough yet beautiful, Rose ‘Hansa’ has been a favorite Rugosa for over a century. It boasts handsome foliage and glorious magenta blooms that have a sweet fragrance reminiscent of cloves. A splendid specimen for the back of the border, it also makes an eye-popping hedge when planted en masse. Own root.

Rugosa Roses offer repeat bloom; exquisite fragrance; handsome, glossy foliage; and outstanding hardiness. Their tolerance for wind, salt, sand, and neglect makes them a superb choice for difficult situations such as seaside gardens. Their colorful hips are a bonus.

For beauty and fragrance the rose knows few rivals. Roses have been cultivated for centuries; there are thousands of cultivars available and, often, an accompanying thicket of taxonomical jargon. Don’t worry about the terminology – the roses we elect to offer were chosen for their beauty, disease-resistance and vigor. Whether you’re looking for a rangy climber to run up a pergola or a petite specimen for a particular spot in the garden, we very likely have a variety to suit.

Roses require 6 or more hours of direct sun per day and fertile, reasonably moist soil. They benefit from an occasional feeding during the growing season.
