Rosa carolina
Pasture Rose

• Pasture Rose grows best in moist, sunny locations where it reaches a rambling size of 3 ft tall and wide and can form larger thickets.

• Older branches are covered in narrow prickles.

• Bright pink flowers bloom in mid spring. 

• Roses are members of the apple family, and their fruits—called hips—can be made into jelly, syrup, spreads and a sweet floral tea. They are high in Vitamin C and other nutrients and have also been used to treat heartburn and indigestion.
