Bonica Rose 1 Live Potted Plant – 12+ Inches Tall – Rosa 'Bonica 82'

Bonica Rose (Rosa 'Bonica 82') is a classic landscape shrub rose admired for its abundant soft pink flowers, graceful growth habit, and extended flowering season. Introduced by Meilland in 1982, this ornamental rose is widely grown in rose gardens, mixed borders, and landscaped planting beds. Its rounded, bushy form and attractive flower clusters make it suitable for traditional cottage gardens and contemporary landscapes.

The flowers are typically soft shell pink, opening in slightly deeper pink shades before gradually fading to pale pink. Blooms are double, loosely cupped, and produced in generous clusters. Bonica is known for repeat flowering, often producing multiple flushes from late spring or early summer through fall under favorable growing conditions. Its fragrance is generally light or subtle. Decorative orange-red rose hips may develop when spent flowers remain on the plant.

This perennial shrub rose develops a bushy, spreading to gently arching growth habit with attractive green foliage. It generally performs best in full sun, fertile well-drained soil, and moderate, consistent moisture. Bonica is suitable for mass plantings, ornamental borders, rose beds, and large outdoor containers.
