A rose is a rose. Doesn't matter where in the world it grows. If by "native versions" you are talking about different species of plants, then I do not know the answer.
As far as I know, most, if not all, of the hibiscus family is safe to feed. Roses are all fine AS LONG AS they are not grown with any toxic chemicals, which most of them are, which is why I grow my own. One lady at a nursery was looking at me like I was a total idiot because I didn't want to spray my rose bushes with fungicide and insecticide. She had never heard of such a crazy notion in all her years....
