Rosa 'Thérèse Bugnet'
Rosa 'Thérèse Bugnet' is a hybrid rugosa rose - a hardy, fragrant shrub rose bred in Canada in 1954. This deciduous plant produces highly double, deep pink or purplish flower clusters in early summer and again in late summer. The foliage is glossy, deep green with heavy, serrated leaves and outstanding resistance to disease and pests. The 6-8 foot tall bushes are covered in showy hips in autumn and are considered very deer resistant. The bush has a medium growth rate, and requires full sun, well drained soils and regular watering. An attractive and carefree garden addition, 'Thérèse Bugnet' is a must-have for any passionate rose gardener.

watering
Hybrid rugosa rose (Rosa 'Thérèse Bugnet') should be watered about once a week, depending on the weather. If it has been hot and dry, water the plant more frequently. The soil should be kept moist but not soaked - about one inch of water per week should be enough. If the weather has been hot and dry, it is better to water a bit more than less, as this species is quite drought tolerant once established. Water in the morning, as it gives the moisture time to penetrate the soil before the sun evaporates it.
sunlight
Hybrid rugosa roses, such as Rosa 'Thérèse Bugnet', should be planted in an area that receives full sun for optimal health and blooming. The ideal amount of sun for this species of plant is 6-8 hours of direct sunlight per day. Wherever the plant is located, it's best to receive the most sunlight during the morning hours, before 11am, to avoid sun scalding the blooms and leaves.
pruning
Rosa 'Thérèse Bugnet' should be pruned twice per year. It is essential to prune this type of shrub every spring and fall to promote growth and maintain hedges or desired shapes. Prune early in spring before new growth emerges—dead and crossing branches should be removed to create an open structure with plenty of air circulation. In the fall, prune lightly to clean up any damaged or broken stems. Cut back shoots by approximately 1-third for bush roses, or all the way to the main framework (old wood) for climbing roses. Apply a balanced fertilizer each spring to promote healthy growth and usual prune back spent flowers. Pruned plants are healthier, last longer, and develop more vibrant blooms, so make sure to keep the hybrid rugosa rose (Rosa 'Thérèse Bugnet') pruned for a healthy, gorgeous plant.
