Rosa Canina Var. Hispidissima

Rosa canina var. hispidissima is a lesser-known variant of the dog rose known for its unique characteristics. This plant features dense, thorny stems and small, fragrant flowers that bloom in early summer. It thrives in well-drained soils and prefers full sun to partial shade. Its hairy leaves and robust growth make it a hardy addition to gardens and natural landscapes. Despite its beauty, it remains relatively obscure compared to other rose varieties.
