This rose, widely known in Maine as the ‘Beach rose,’ turns out to be an ace in the desert as well. Out of thirty different rose cultivars I trialled last year in Phoenix (9b), this was both the most fragrant and the only one to bloom in the ‘dog days’ of summer, when most other plants are too busy fighting transpiration to grow much, let alone blossom. Marvelous rugose foliage. Deep pink blooms suggest ‘rubra’ selection. Good golden autumn color. Overall, positively remarkable performance in one of the USA’s harshest climates.

One of the most enlightening aspects of growing and distributing plants is feedback from other growers who try one’s stuff. Thank you for shedding more light on our Rosa rugosa, some see thorns, some see blossoms, it is all about pure view.

I’m interested too! Just ordered Crataegus laevigata ‘Paul’s Scarlet’ (C. oxyacantha) from you – so happy I found it : )

Hello Renata,
OK, thank you for staying in touch, we’ll e-mail you when rosa rugosa comes available again. We do have plenty of English Hawthorne trees right now and they are recommended, but I’m not sure where you got the “Paul’s Scarlet” adage–what we have are species plants, not select cultivars.
