About China Doll Potted Rose Bush
Rosa ‘China Doll’China Doll
China Doll is a polyantha introduced by Weeks Roses (USA), beloved for its cascade of small, china-pink blooms cascading over a tidy mound. These lightly scented cupped flowers—20–25 petals, about 1.5″ across—blanket the plant repeatedly from spring through fall. Compact with glossy foliage and bred for resilience, it’s a favorite for containers, borders, or low hedging.
