Rugosa Roses in So California
I am in Santa Barbara, CA and am interested in planting some Rugosas
in my landscaping and am wondering if there is anyone in SO CAL that has tried any, either with success or failure. All of the info I've found is to hardiness in cold climates. While it does freeze here and get into the 90's in our little microclimate, I'm wondering if I can rely on the size info. And, do they even grow here? If so, I'm having a hard time understanding why I haven' t come across any in landscapings or even at nurseries in my area. Can anyone give me any clarity, or direct me to a source that can help me choose the best types for here? Thanks a bunch |

Thanks a bunch A quick google search reveals a number of CA rose societies including one in Santa Barbara: http://www.sbrose.org/ I would recommend contacting one of their listed consulting rosarians with your questions.
