Pasture rose is a shrub with fragrant pink flowers and edible rose hips. It's adaptable to a wide range of habitats from dry shade to moist sunny spots. Its size and flower profusion will be greatest in sunny, well-drained locations. The hips turn a bright red in fall and make tasty jellies and medicinal tea. The hips and flowers are also a valuable food for birds and pollinators. Its thick growth habit provides year-round habitat for birds. Pasture rose makes a great native plant replacement for invasive roses like Rosa rugosa.
