Rosa pendulina,(syn.Rosa alpina), theAlpine roseormountain rose,is a species of wildrosefound in the mountains of central and southern Europe. It appears to have survived inglacial refugiain the Alps and Carpathians, and spread out from there.[4]A climbing shrub with deep pink flowers and relatively few thorns, it has had a history of cultivation as an ornamental plant.

Description
[edit]Rosa pendulinais a climbing (or rambling) shrub between 0.5 and 2m, rarely 3m tall. The flowers are typically semi-doubled and deep pink to fuchsia, brightening towards the center. It can be distinguished from other members of its genus by its relative lack of thorns (prickles), especially higher up on the plant, its oblong fruits (hips) which hang downwards (are pendulous, hence the specific epithet), its hispid peduncles and petioles, and its smooth stems and branches.[5]The chromosome number is 4n = 28.[6]

Distribution
[edit]It prefers to grow in relatively warmer, shadier, and wetter areas alongside streams, in openings in forests, or on rock piles, between 350 and 2,500m above sea level.[1]
It is mostly found in the subalpine zone of the mountains of Central and Southern Europe: thePyrenees,theMassif Central,theAlps(at elevations of up to 2300–2600m in the various parts of the range), throughout theCarpathians(up to 1800m in theTatras), in Czechia and adjacent areas of Germany and Poland, in theApenninesand in the mountains of theBalkan Peninsula(at elevations of 1000–2500m in Bulgaria).[7][8][9]
It has been introduced toNew Englandand can be found growing as a garden escapee elsewhere.
Cultivation
[edit]Often called by its synonymRosa alpina,the Alpine rose has been in cultivation for hundreds of years (c.1683), with many varieties that are practically forgotten today.[10][11][12]It has contributed genetically to an unknown, but large, number of extant rose cultivars.[13]It flowers early, has a pleasing, strong fragrance, and is nearly thornless, all desirable traits for rose breeders. An undesirable trait is that it has weakpedicelssupporting the flowers, which leads to the pendulous habit of the fruits. It is hardy toUSDA Zone 4a.
Varieties
[edit]Numerous varieties (and even subspecies) were described forR. pendulinaandR. alpina(see list of synonyms), but these have all been collapsed intoR. pendulina.
Hybrids
[edit]Rosa pendulinais said to be the parent of a number of hybrids.
- Rosa × anachoreticaSchmidely(R. montana×R. pendulina)[14]
- Rosa × buseriRouy(R. pendulina×R. sherardii)[15]
- Rosa × brueggeriKillias(R. glauca×R. pendulina)[16]
- Rosa × hispidocarpa(J.B. Keller) G. Beck(R. canina×R. pendulina)[17]
- Rosa × intercalarisDéségl.(R. pendulina×R. villosa)[18]
- Rosa × iseranaRouy(R. pendulina×R. rubiginosa)[19]
- Rosa × lheritieranaThory(R. chinensis×R. pendulina)[20]
- Rosa × reversaKit.(R. pendulina×R. spinosissima)[21]
- Rosa × salaevensisRapin(R. dumalis×R. pendulina)[22]
- Rosa × spinulifoliaDematra(R. pendulina×R. tomentosa)[23]
- Rosa × wasserburgensisKirschleger(R. trachyphylla×R. pendulina×R. tomentosa)[24]
Cultivars
[edit]Many of these cultivars are quite old and would be assessed differently usingmodern standards.Rose fanciers tended to call all sports,chance seedlings,regional variants, natural hybrids, and artificial hybrids "varieties" rather than "cultivars". Some, such as the Boursault roses, would probably be consideredGroupstoday. Simply having someR. pendulinaancestry, such as with theMoomin rose(Rosa'Tove Jansson'), does not make a rose a cultivar ofR. pendulina.
