The Sir Thomas Lipton Rose, Rosa Hybrid Rugosa 'Sir Thomas Lipton', is a hybrid rugosa shrub rose with a vigorous, dense, upright, rounded habit. Sir Thomas Lipton features fragrant, semi double to double, pure white flowers to 2.5 diameter which bloom in June, with an intermittent, but respectable, repeat bloom throughout the summer. It features leathery, dark green foliage. Rugosa means wrinkled in reference to the appearance of the foliage. Sir Thomas Lipton is best grown in medium moisture, slightly acidic, well drained garden loams in full sun to part shade. Best flowering and disease resistance generally occur in full sun, however. Water deeply and regularly mornings are best. Avoid overhead watering.
