The rugosas and their hybrids
Extract from book by J Lachaume "Rose trees" from 1927
Group of rugged rose trees.
Strong and bushy shrub, rustic, able to resist the coldest climates, native from Japan and Mandchourie.
Branches covered with lots of thorns, large, thick, creased leaves with 7 to 11 leaves with dark green veins in front and grey green dentate veins at the back.
Large, white, pink or red flowers, never yellow, very fragrant, clustered in bunches followed by bright red globular fruit, crowned by evergreen sepals.
Althougn these flower do not impress by their floppy shape, they will probably improve with the next species.
Every rugged rose tree should be best suited in Northern France gardens given their rustic style.
