Seaside Pink Rose Fruiting Shrub {Rosa Rugosa} Large Hips | Edible | Heat Tolerant | Thornless variety 30+ seeds.
Large shocking pink single rose flowers, with petals like tissue paper,
stand out like beacons against the deeply-veined, large bright green
leaves ultimately giving way to fat, glossy orange hips that are just
as attractive as the flowers. This is a fast-growing rose with a dense
and bushy habit that makes it a good choice for a summer-flowering hedge
with autumn interest. The extremely thorny stems make it a good deterrent
barrier too.
These seeds have already been thoroughly cleaned and cold-stored for several
months. They should be sown into well-drained, sandy compost at any time of
the year, and covered to their own depth with sand or grit. No artificial
heat is needed; the seed tray is best left in a cool spot outside and kept
moist. Seeds usually germinate in the spring after a chilling in the cold
compost, regardless of when they are sown.
