Roseraie De L'Hay Rose Bushes
'Roseraie De L' rugosa roses aren't native and are a Schedule 9 plant: only for garden use. It's illegal to plant them out in the wild, like a country hedge.
Roseraie de l'Hay is a more cultivated form of the Red Ramanas Rose.
A vigorous, dense shrub, with dark green leaves and rich, wine-purple, elongated buds, opening to splendid, large, crimson-purple flowers that carry a really strong, clove perfume. Roseraie de l'Hay also presents very good autumn leaves. 7 ft. x 7 ft.
Being very thorny, it's a good choice for a secure hedge, especially if given some structure with Hawthorn, however, wild rugosas will be more cost-effective for this purpose.
