A magnificent landscape rose which is very dramatic when in full bloom. Ivory colored buds open pure white and full. The flowers are tiny and appear in clusters of 3-5. Flowering is so profuse that it is difficult to see the foliage when in full bloom.
A fast grower, Alba Meidiland is an excellent choice for slopes where it can cascade freely. It could also be effectively used as a barrier hedge because it is quite dense and thorny. It spreads rapidly by suckers so select your location wisely. The rootings are very easy to transplant and share with friends. Very disease resistant - a vigorous performer. Highly recommended.
