It was first botanically described from a specimen growing in Georgia and is that state's official flower. 'The Cherokee Rose' is a mounding bush to about 5 feet, or a thickly foliaged climber to 15 feet with neat, apple-green leaves. In the spring, fragrant, pure white, 5-petaled flowers appear and cleanly drop their petals to disclose star-shaped sepals. It is one of the best for naturalizing in the South since it does not sucker (unlike the 'Macartney Rose', with which it is often confused) and offers an outstanding floral display in return for very little care.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antique Rose Emporium","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":1772097175562,"sku":"103","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2181\/5277\/files\/Cherokee_-_2.jpg?v=1744132397"},{"product_id":"chestnut-rose","title":"Chestnut Rose","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePrior to 1814\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e5 to 7 feet    \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlso known as the ‘Chinquapin Rose’ and ‘Burr Rose’, this very double, garden form of R. roxburghii was introduced before the wild, single form because the interior of China was inaccessible to Europeans in the early 1800s. William Roxburgh, an assistant surgeon to the East India Co., came across this rose in a garden in Canton, China, where it had been grown for generations as ‘Hoi-tong-hong’. He sent it to the Calcutta Botanic Garden. From there it reached England in 1820 and quickly traveled on to America. We find it lingering in many old Southern gardens. The ‘Chestnut Rose’ is unique in many ways. The pink, lightly fragrant flowers open from mossy-looking buds irregularly throughout the growing season and are followed by bristly, globular hips that resemble chestnut burrs. The odd, pale brown bark of the branches, combined with leaves divided into many small leaflets (as many as 15), makes this rose a fascinating specimen plant, especially if allowed to reach its mature size.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antique Rose Emporium","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":1772097208330,"sku":"105","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2181\/5277\/files\/f120647424.jpg?v=1766007198"},{"product_id":"fortuniana","title":"Fortuniana","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1850\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e12 to 20 feet    \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis apparently natural hybrid of R. banksiae and R. laevigata also bears the name of the young Scottish undergardener Robert Fortune.

The nearly thornless canes have foliage that is graceful and open, like the Banksias, but somewhat larger and glossier as befits the ‘Cherokee Rose’ heritage. It can be planted anywhere, as this is a rose that thrives even in poor, dry, sandy soils. The disease resistance, ease of culture, and graceful effect of this plant give it great value in the landscape. ‘Fortuniaia’ may be grown as a climber, spreading 12 to 20 feet, or it may be pruned back to form a mounding shrub of 6 to 8 feet in diameter.
