    In this study, some morphological, physiological and chemical properties of the Rosa chinensis Jacq. 'Viridflora' taxa, which does not form petals due to a flower anomaly called phlloidi and is called 'Green rose' only because of the long and green sepals it forms, were discussed. In this context, plant growth characteristics, leaf characteristics, stomatal morphology, proportional water content of leaves, chlorophyll contents of leaves and micro and macro nutrient content of leaves were determined. As a result of the study, it was determined that the 'Green rose' plant, which was compared with different Rosa taxa, had a broad/upright structure, the average leaf area was 17.17 cm2, the average pedicel length was 1.45 cm, the proportional water content of the leaf was 77.42%, and the chlorophyll amount was 40.87. It was concluded that the leaves of R. chinensis 'Viridflora' plant had average values in stomatal morphology parameters. In line with reference values, nitrogen, phosphorus and manganese values were found to be low in Yeşilgül leaves, while boron and calcium values were found to be high. Potassium, magnesium, copper and iron contents were within the reference range.
