Rosa 'Ducher'
Bred in Lyon, France, by Jean-Claude Ducher in 1869, Ducher, pronounced "doo-shay, "is one of very few white China roses. While the Ducher family bred many lovely roses over a lengthy period, this modest rose is the one they chose to bear their family name.
Petals of the medium-sized blooms are pure white, though the light reflected often takes on a creamy color. The bush is described as looking like snow in a pine forest. The double flowers have a fruity fragrance. The compact, rounded, twiggy brush is an excellent landscape shrub either as a specimen plant or in a drift of 3 to 5 plants. The soft fullness of the foliage and showy flowers make this an excellent choice to blend with more structured shrubs in a landscape. It works well in a large pot. Ducher tolerates heat, sun, and various soil conditions.
Ducher is a healthy shrub rose that works well in landscape beds or containers. These plants prefer well-drained soil and do best in full sun. This repeat bloomer makes an excellent specimen plant, and the fragrant blossoms are beautiful.

Winter Shipping: We will continue to ship throughout winter. If you prefer, we are happy to hold your order until spring; please include that request in your shipping notes.
When you order plants from our nursery, you can expect them to arrive in the best possible condition. Our team carefully packs each order using sturdy, biodegradable packaging materials.
Your plants' appearance may vary depending on the season and their current growth stage. We may cut back the leafy growth of some plants to prepare them for shipment and transplanting.
5 Gallon and Up: Any plant purchased to ship over 5 Gallons will be shipped bare root. This means we will remove the plant from its original pot, remove the soil surrounding the roots, and wrap the roots with a biodegradable plastic bag. This reduces weight and the likelihood of damage during shipping.
Once your plants arrive, it is essential to plant them as soon as possible. This will help them rebound and thrive. If you cannot plant immediately, water regularly and keep the roots off heat-conducting surfaces.
Newly transplanted plants often require more water until their roots are well established. Plan to water them 1-3 times weekly for the first few months.
