A Hardy Native Shrub
About Prairie Wild Rose
This resilient rose develops into a low-growing shrub, offering vibrant color through its fragrant pink-white blooms in summer. Its foliage transforms to a striking orange-red in autumn, and it produces rose hips (seed pods) that serve as food for birds and wildlife throughout winter.
While this species is more challenging to grow from seed, once established, the roots are robust and spread deep into the soil. Between the deep root system and this plants ability to spread via rhizomes, it is crucial to select the right location as transplanting is nearly impossible. This growth pattern also gives this species with excellent resistance to drought and fire.
