“Climbing prairie rose has fragrant deep pink flowers two inches in diameter with many yellow stamens at the center. The clusters of blooms arrive in early to mid-summer, and fade slowly to white. Birds relish the showy red rosehips that forms in autumn. This native rose is a shrub with a vine-like habit that allows it to work well as a “living fence” or border. The trailing branches can be trained up trellises or along fences. It tolerates a very wide range of soils and is a versatile garden addition.”
