Lotty’s Love™ Rose has stunning 4inch semi-double blooms of the most shocking magenta. The fragrance that this rose has is an intense spicy herbal scent that attracts loads of native pollinators to your garden.
Rugosa type Roses have virtually no pests or diseases and will tolerate a wide range of growing conditions. The blooms will continue all summer long with no need to deadhead or cut back branches. The fruit that is produced after the blooms are spent is gorgeous and long lasting on the bush. Bright orange-red colored hips the size of cherries persist through the winter to provide high quality nutrition for any non-migrating birds.
