There are many types of moss roses which form part of the Gallicanae group. They are all perennial and are unusual in that they have stiff to downy (to the touch) glands (which look like moss - hence the name) around, buds, flower bases and even stems according to the plant. The 'moss' present is in addition too and does not replace the protective thorns. They add an unquestionable charm to any rose bed and I have myself a number in my collection. Some types of moss roses available today from specialist growers such as Peter Beales based in Attleborough, Norfolk are Common Moss, Chapeau de Napoleon, Alfred de Dalmas, William Lobb and Rene d' Anjou (one of my personal favourites being Common Moss!).

Does anyone know if a moss is a annual or perennialAnswer Mosses are not plants as we usually recognise them. They consist entirely of cells and so are distinct from other groups of plants. The terms Annual or Perennial as we use it does not apply.
