Species roses (Rosa moschata) are nature’s original roses—wild, free-growing, and unchanged by hybridization. They often form dense thickets, making them excellent for natural landscapes and wildlife habitats. In the fall, they produce vibrant rose hips, adding seasonal interest and providing food for birds.
Most species roses have single flowers with five petals and typically bloom once per season. Their natural beauty, hardiness, and ability to thrive with minimal care make them a wonderful choice for gardeners looking for a more organic, low-maintenance rose.
