An older rugosa hybrid purportedly from the Leningrad Botanical Garden in the 1960s. The late Suzanne Verrier grew this rose on her North Creek Farm in Maine: “Clusters of creamy-white double blossoms blushed pink cascade cover [sic] this impressive shrub. It’s a showstopper and very much admired in our gardens.” Dense mounding form with hardy thorns. Very fragrant repeat bloomer makes an excellent hedge. Z3. (9–18" bare-root plants)
