Plant Description
‘Hansa’ Rugosa Rose is a vigorous and resilient shrub rose long valued for its outstanding multi-season display. Large, vibrant reddish-violet blooms appear throughout the season and release an intense clove fragrance. As fall approaches, the foliage develops attractive orange tones, followed by a profusion of large, meaty red hips that extend ornamental interest into late season. Exceptionally hardy and grown on its own roots, ‘Hansa’ is a dependable choice for tough landscape conditions.
