The rugosa rose 'Rosa Rugosa Alba' is the white-flowered version of the rugosa species, with the same qualities of robustness and floridity. Its single, pure white flowers are fragrant and followed by red berries. Very hardy, it reaches 120 to 180 cm, with dark green, crinkled foliage. An excellent choice for free-roaming hedges and natural gardens in difficult climates.
