Rose Hansa
Hansa Rose
Hansa rugosa rose (Rosa ‘Hansa’) forms a robust upright shrub with large, double purple-pink flowers and a strong fragrance. Blooms recur through the growing season, followed by prominent orange-red hips.
Suckering roots gradually widen the planting, making it useful for a substantial informal hedge. It tolerates coastal salt exposure; allow room for its natural growth instead of relying on repeated heavy pruning.
Grow in full sun with well-drained soil and regular water during establishment. Allow suckering roots space to spread, and check local planting guidance because rugosa roses can naturalize strongly.
