Family Rosaceae

The ‘Martin Frobisher’ Rugosa Rose is a shrub rose from the Canadian Explorer series, renowned for its excellent hardiness and elegant blooms. It forms an upright, gracefully branched shrub, producing an abundance of delicately fragrant pale pink double flowers. Its grayish-green foliage offers good disease resistance and highlights the softness of the flowers, which bloom continuously from early summer until the first frosts. Ideal for borders, informal hedges, or as a specimen plant, it brings a romantic and natural touch to the garden. Highly cold-tolerant, the ‘Martin Frobisher’ Rugosa Rose is perfectly suited for northern climates and for landscaping that requires robustness, prolonged flowering, and moderate maintenance in full sun.
