There is significant disagreement over the number of true rose species. Some species are so similar that they could easily be considered variations of a single species, while other species show enough variation that they could easily be considered to be different species. Lists of rose species usually show more than 320.[1] The numbers 320 to 350 are the figures accepted by most botanists, but as Bailey has pointed out, the extreme lumpers Bentham and Hooker only allowed for 30 species, while the extreme splitter Michel Gandoger allowed 4,266 species just in Europe and West Asia.[2]
Subgenera and sections Rosa banksiae Rosa persica There are currently four subgenera in Rosa , although there has been some disputes over the years.[3] The four subgenera are:
Hulthemia Simplicifoliae , meaning "with single leaves") containing one or two species from Southwest Asia, R. persica R. berberifolia (syn. R. persica var. berberifolia ) which are the only species without compound leaves or stipules .Hesperrhodos Greek for "western rose") with two species, both from southwestern North America , R. minutifolia and R. stellata .Platyrhodon Greek for "flaky rose", referring to its flaky bark) with one species from East Asia, R. roxburghii .Rosa Banksianae China Bracteatae India Caninae Europe , Asia and North Africa Carolinae North America Chinensis Burma Gallicanae Gymnocarpae R. gymnocarpa ), the rest in East AsiaLaevigatae Pimpinellifoliae Rosa Cinnamomeae ) – white, pink, lilac, mulberry and red species from all areas except North AfricaSynstylae
