They mix well with other shrubs, perennials or ground covers. Many have long blooming periods. Most are commonly available. Buy old or species types from specialty nurseries. |
Species and hybrids of this old garden rose type bloom from spring into late fall, with many colors. Develop large red rose hips. Leaves turn orange in autumn. Give this coarse aggressive plant space. Spreads by aggressive underground rhizomes, forming large impenetrable clumps. Often clipped into a formal hedge.
