More information
A recent addition to the Roadrunner series of roses in an intense purple–purple color. Displays traits typical of rugosa hybrids: strong fragrance, good winter hardiness, and disease-resistant foliage.
Flowers are purple (crimson–dark pink) with a lilac tint. Leaves and shrub externally resemble wild rose (rosehip), differing by a more compact size and greater bush density. The shrub forms a cushion-shaped habit, wider than tall. Flowering is abundant and prolonged. Blooms are double and semi-double, medium-sized, 5–6 cm in diameter, in large shield-shaped inflorescences. The fragrance is strong.
The Roadrunner series (2007) is noted for strong plant health and full winter hardiness. Dark green foliage carries clusters of fragrant double flowers. These roses can be conditionally classified as groundcover roses. They are used for borders, as well as for group and solitary plantings.
