Therese Bugnet Rose

Rosa 'Thérèse Bugnet'

Plant Details:

Plant Type: Shrub

Plant Family: Rosaceae

Plant Description: Deciduous flowering shrub. Clusters of fragrant light-pink to fuschia flowers bloom in late-spring to early-summer and continue to bloom sporadically throughout the summer. Stems are very thorny. Leaves are green with deep veins and serrated edges. Proper care and pruning will ensure healthy plants with many blossoms.

Maintenance:

Maintenance Type: Shrub - Thinning

Plant Care: Shrub - Thinning (woody multi-stemmed plants that lose their leaves every winter and look best on older stems): Prune dead, diseased, or rubbing branches. Pruning is best done in late winter to early spring for most shrubs. With spring blooming shrubs, prune after the blooms are spent. Remove up to 1/3rd of the overall shrub, keeping older branches to build up a sturdy, permanent and picturesque framework. Keep in mind that these shrubs bloom directly on older wood or on shoots that come off old wood. Monitor for pests, diseases, or other ailments on a regular basis.

Garden Staff Tips & Insights:

Edibility notes: Rose petals can be eaten fresh or candied, they can be infused in drinks, or added to salads for a nice pop of color. Rose hips are also edible raw, though the seeds should be avoided as they cause stomach upset. They are more frequently used in jams, jellies, and herbal teas.
