'Rosa lucidissima H. Léveillé' rose Description
HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.

Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.

We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.

Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..

We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.

As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.

Notes:
Repert. Spec. Nov. Regni Veg. 9: 444. 1911

Native to the Guizhou, Hubei and Sichuan provinces of central China. First collected by Julien Cavalerie in 1903. Alfred Rehder thought Rosa lucidissima was a hybrid of Rosa laevigata and Rosa chinensis, proposing the name Rosa x anemonoides. Recent genetic research hints that Rosa lucidissima and Rosa laevigata are distinct species. See References.

Not known to be in cultivation in North America.
