Product Specs

Large hips-Dense clusters of fruit

Selected from Apple Rose, Rosa pomifera-villosa, Big Hip has produced the most fruit in the smallest amount of plant. Even small one foot tall plants can be packed with fruit. We have grown this plant in its numerous forms and have found even seed selections are highly fruitful making selection difficult as to which is the best. Big Hip provides a nice floral and scented blossom with few if any insect pests and zero leaf diseases. It is a thorny plant but fruit is usually produced near the edges of the canes and it is fortunate this species is not a dense grower making harvest not too prickly of a situation.
