An extraordinary rose this Jean de Luxembourg, roi de Bohème. It's the first Rugosa ever with big apricot double flowers. Petals are often ruffled and the flowers show beautiful stamen. They stand in small clusters. These beautiful blooms are accompanied by a delicious fruity fragrance.

The shrub itself is vigorous and can get between 100/120 cm or 3 to 4 feet. Foliage is very healthy and hardiness is zone 5b to 9b

Jean de Luxembourg, roi de Bohème blooms in flushes throughout the season and is very beautiful as a hedge, in borders and as a cut flower. 

It's something very special
