Family Rosaceae

The 'Bonica' Rose is a vigorous shrub rose with a bushy and slightly spreading habit, renowned for its abundant flowering and great reliability. It produces a multitude of soft pink double flowers, gathered in large decorative clusters that bloom from early summer until the first frosts. Its glossy dark green foliage shows good disease resistance and highlights the softness of the flowers. At the end of the season, it can produce numerous red rose hips, adding autumnal interest. Ideal in beds, as an informal hedge, or in group plantings, the 'Bonica' Rose brings volume, texture, and continuous blooms to full sun arrangements. Easy to care for and robust, it is a safe choice for a sustainable and generous garden.
