Create a large, durable planting with these 1600 White Rugosa Rose (Rosa rugosa albiflora) seeds. Known for its toughness and beauty, this hardy shrub is everything delicate hybrid roses are not—low maintenance, highly adaptable, and incredibly resilient.

White Rugosa Rose forms a dense, upright, rounded shrub typically 4–6 feet tall and 3–5 feet wide. From late spring through summer, it produces very fragrant single white flowers up to 3.5 inches across. These blooms are followed by large orange to red rose hips that persist into winter. The hips are rich in vitamin C and can be used for teas, jams, and jellies while also attracting birds and wildlife.

Its thick, glossy, deeply wrinkled foliage turns vibrant shades of yellow, orange, and red in fall. Exceptionally tolerant of cold, heat, drought, salt spray, and wind, this near-indestructible shrub is perfect for hedges, borders, coastal gardens, wildlife habitats, and large naturalized plantings.
