Rugosa Rose Schneezwerg
A compact rose, hence the name Snowdwarf, Rosa Schneezwerg is a medium-sized, deciduous rugosa rose with a very prickly, dense, bushy habit. The small, divided leaves are bright green, glossy and heavily veined, and turn yellow in autumn. Masses of lightly fragrant, semi-double, pure white flowers with golden stamens are borne in summer and autumn; these are followed by round, bright orange-red hips, smaller than those of most rugosas, giving a further season of interest. Rugosa roses are wonderfully strong, healthy and disease-resistant, and Schneezwerg is no exception; it’s reliable, tolerant of salt air and is good in a naturalistic planting or to make an impenetrable, stock-proof, flowering hedge. It holds the RHS Award of Garden Merit.
