Growing Sweet Hips® Rugosa Rose with Niles

Niles Kinerk, owner of Gurney’s Seed & Nursery Co., plants Sweet Hips® Rose. Sweet Hips® is a remarkable Rosa rugosa hybrid, and a vigorous grower.

Advice from Niles

Sweet Hips® Rugosa Rose is a great choice for people who like to use rose hips to make jam, flavor teas, or more—the hips are larger than just about any other rose variety, and they are naturally very sweet, which means you can use less sugar for any culinary uses.
It is very disease resistant, and doesn’t require any spraying. It will bloom all season long until the freeze.
