Shrub Rose
Bears dainty clusters of attractive, small to medium-sized, mid pink flowers. If they are not dead-headed they will be followed by a wonderful crop of bright red hips, which last long into the winter. It forms a nice, sturdy shrub with tidy, spreading growth and ample foliage. It is hardy, very healthy and extremely reliable, making it one of the most widely planted of all roses.
‘Bonica’ forms a nice, sturdy shrub with tidy, spreading growth and ample foliage. It is hardy, has little disease and is extremely reliable, making it one of the most widely planted of all roses. A good choice for private gardens and for landscaping; it can be grown in beds and borders, in both formal and informal settings. It is also perfect for a large container.
