    Distribution: Afghanistan, Pakistan, Tajikistan, Kyrghystan, Kazakhstan and S. W. China.

    One of the most polymorphic species of the genus, very difficult to understand and define satisfactorily. Rosa webbiana represents a complex of numerous morphotypes, sometimes differing extremely from each other. These morphotypes, differ, however, in quantitative characters, and are linked by a full scale of intermediates. The situation is more complicated by intensive hybridization with Rosa beggeriana and Rosa macrophylla. Field studies on ecology, phenology and distribution of particular biotypes, as well as caryological investigations may help to explain the problem.
