Pimpinellifolia Roses
These are the Scotch or Burnet roses, formerly known as
spinosissimas, with the most delicate of foliage, low growing with an attractive
mounding habit. They are very hardy. Their flowers are generally very
fragrant. They have lots of tiny prickles, sucker freely (although we don't find
them too invasive) and have attractive black
hips, like large blackcurrants. The ferny foliage turns fantastic shades of
orange and red in autumn. So these roses have something of interest virtually
all year round and are very easy to grow.
