Rosa virginiana
Choose Virginia Rose if you want a native rose for pollinators, hips, and tough dry banks. The tradeoff: it suckers and looks informal, so don’t use it where you need a tidy foundation shrub.
| Category | Grade | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Landscape Impact | B+ | The flowers and hips carry a natural border well, but the plant reads more meadow than manicured landscape. |
| Growth Rate | A- | It fills in quickly once settled, which helps on rough sites but can outpace small beds. |
| Maintenance | C+ | Plan on occasional thinning and sucker control rather than fussy rose care. |
| Deer Resistance | C- | Deer may browse roses, especially tender growth, so protect new plants where pressure is high. |
| Small Space Fit | C | Its spreading habit makes it a poor pick for tight walks, entries, or narrow foundation strips. |
| Screening Value | C+ | It can make a loose seasonal screen, but it is not dense or evergreen enough for privacy. |
At PGNE, we'd typically recommend Virginia Rose for natural edges, slopes, and wildlife plantings, not beside the front steps. Give it room, expect suckers, and prune for direction rather than forcing a formal shape.

I went up there today from Quincy MA to pick up two Blue Wichita Junipers and they were absolutely beautiful. Thank you, Chris and everybody from Pro Growers of New England!
The plants are beautiful and all 13 were consistent in height and width. And at a fraction of the cost of other garden centers. Having the team that delivered them do the planting was one of the best values I can think of. They did a great job from start to finish and even helped me with my watering system which they didn’t have to do!
Very nice
Guys installed for me as well
Great job
Huge selection and fast delivery. All plants arrived in great condition.
Great prices and Unbelievable selection of big and small trees, shrubs, and flowering perennials! Nicest folks to work with. And local delivery is awesome! First time purchasing from this company, , and have already told friends, neighbors and family. The owner Chris is professional, knowledgeable, and yet laid back in a most friendly way. Mags in the office will help with any details. My all time BEST garden purchase EVER!
Bought 8-10 ft and all were barely 8 if you count the container. Trees are thin and lots of brown branches and broken branches due you thrown in box truck no wrapping or anything. Hoping they survive and thicken up quick…
