Rosa Viscaria Var. Lugdunensis
Rosa viscaria var. lugdunensis is a rare and ancient rose species native to the mountainous regions of central Europe. It is known for its distinctive deep red flowers and thorny stems that thrive in harsh alpine conditions. This variant is often referred to as the "Lugdunensis rose" due to its historical ties to ancient Roman settlements. Its unique appearance and limited distribution make it a prized subject for botanists and horticulturists. Despite its beauty, it remains a challenging plant to cultivate outside its natural habitat.
