More information
Prairie Princess ranks among the earliest roses developed by Professor Griffith Buck at the University of Iowa to withstand freezing winters successfully. This variety has been extensively used in later hybridization programs. Its blooms are pink, cup-shaped, semi-double, with golden stamens that keep their color for a long time. They occur in clusters of 3–7 flowers on the stems. The shrub is disease resistant, vigorous, strong-growing, and tall enough to serve as a small pleached rose in warm climates in cultivation. In regions with cold winters outdoors, Prairie Princess remains a crabapple—simple, freely flowering, and hardy.
