Description
About The Green Rose
Other Details

A descendant of Old Blush, The Green Rose (R. Chinensis viridiflora) is one of the most unique roses. This rose is a very hardy China variety first discovered around 1827 and introduced to the public in 1855. The Green Rose actually has no flowers, no petals, and no seeds! This sterile rose has been kept in gardens for centuries by committed growers propagating cuttings and sharing!

The Green Rose is a true mainstay in all of rose history. Instead of petals, it has rows and rows of narrow, leaf-like sepals stacked up which create the floret shape. The Green Rose is often touched with a tint of bronze and in warmer zones can keep its foliage year-round. We love The Green Rose in arrangements for a pop of whimsy.

So unique!

It has a very special place in my garden. After all these years of rose gardening, it’s won my heart. Early this season, I got 2 half inch buds, But not being used to the weather in NC, I didn’t give them enough water to bloom. Now I have three of those wonderful spikey blooms on a tiny plant and they are thriving. They are a gem for any rose aficionado.

GREAT LITTLE STARTER PLANT

Which i planted in my full sun rose garden. YIKES, I just read it prefers shade. Now what?

GREEN!!

40 years ago, my dad and mother took me to the Franklin Park Columbus Zoo and the Botanical Gardarden.

We rounded the Gardarden, and I found the "The Green Rose." The marking said, the that the plant was known for decades.

Years ago, I found the Reagan Nursery, and I bought 2 plants of the "The Green Rose."

I sold my California resident, coming back to Ohio.

Buying 2 "The Green Rose."

Thanks!!

Daddy's favorite

My Daddy's favorite when I was young and I'd like to have one of my own now that I'm getting old and living on my own as a widow.. I will soon be in my mid-90s.
