Rosa rugosa 'Alba'
Choose White Rugosa Rose if you want a tough, fragrant border rose for sun, salt, and rough New England sites. The tradeoff: it suckers and has serious thorns, so give it room and don’t place it by tight walkways.
| Category | Grade | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Landscape Impact | B+ | The white flowers, textured foliage, and red hips give it a strong natural look without feeling formal. |
| Growth Rate | A- | It fills in quickly for a shrub rose, especially where it has open ground to spread. |
| Maintenance | B | It is disease resistant and not fussy, but suckers and thorny canes need occasional control. |
| Deer Resistance | D | Roses are not a safe bet where deer feed heavily, even with the thorns. |
| Small Space Fit | C- | This is not a neat small-space shrub because it spreads and needs room around it. |
| Screening Value | B | It can make a dense informal barrier, but it is not a clean formal privacy screen. |
At PGNE, we’d typically recommend this for open, sunny borders where function matters as much as flowers. Keep it away from narrow paths, kids’ play areas, and spots where suckering will become a nuisance.

Yes, it can sucker, which is useful for a barrier but annoying in tight beds.
Yes, they add fall color and can feed birds if not pruned off.
No, this is one of the tougher shrub roses, but it still wants sun and space.

Showed up on time and planted it perfectly. I indicated a light we had to illuminate it and they placed it for optimal lighting. Worked fast and left a clean worksite. First rate!
Really great website, communication and installation. Very happy customer and would recommend them.
They delivered three trees: a big linden, a big poplar and a little spice bush with install on the big trees. The install guys were great and professional and fast. All the trees looked good with minimal damage.
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 dedicated and professional. We are happy with the way they planted 14 trees for us. 11 green giants, 2 white pines and 1 Norway spruce.
Picked up my plants-ostrich ferns and blue ice amsonia without any problems! Wonderful, responsive owners! Will be buying from them in the future!
