The Thérèse Bugnet Rose (Rosa ‘Thérèse Bugnet’) is a legendary Canadian hybrid rugosa shrub rose. It is celebrated for its luminous, clear pink, fully double, and highly fragrant flowers, which are held against quilted, gray-green foliage. Its ornamental value is extended by attractive reddish-purple canes.

Growth & Size

This variety exhibits a robust, upright, and suckering growth habit. It forms a substantial shrub, reliably reaching a mature size of about 1.8 meters (6 feet) in both height and width.

Additional Notes

Its primary bloom occurs in late spring to early summer, with a reliable repeat flowering later in the season. Legendary for its extreme cold hardiness (to USDA zone 2) and excellent disease resistance, it is exceptionally low-maintenance. It also produces large, decorative orange hips in autumn. Ideal for low-care hedges, mixed borders, or as a fragrant, resilient specimen.
