Very Little Maintainence

These rose types are very easy to care for.

They do Not like to be sprayed or Pruned. They actually do better without either.

They are not big on fertilizing either. They rarely get mildew or blackspot. But if they do, it doesn't affect the wonderful flowering of the plant!

Rosa Rugosa is the parent of many species of wonderful disease-free hybrids including Kordes R Kordesii (from Germany) and David Austin (from England). The hardy Rugosa rose is used in their breeding programs to produce their wonderful roses!
