Rosa Nitty Gritty® White

Crisp white flowers, perfect for small spaces.

An easy to care for Rose with semi-double, porcelain-white flowers that bloom from spring through summer. The fragrant flowers are complimented by yellow stamens. The tallest in the series, Nitty Gritty™ White Rose really shows off in urban gardens where you need something bright and cheery to pop. Lovely in mass plantings, on a slope for erosion control, or in coastal settings, where they are tolerant of salt air.

A low growing, disease resistant shrub rose with semi-double pure white flowers for most of the summer.

Landscape Use

Foundations, cutting gardens, wildlife gardens, borders, and small urban gardens

Pruning

These roses are so hardy, they should need little pruning, but if you see some dead parts with no leaves in late spring, cut back to just above the new growth. Best rule of thumb for timeng is - "When the Forsythia bloom, it's time to prune!"
