Virginia Rose 1 Live Plant – 2 Gallon Pot – Rosa virginiana

Virginia Rose (Rosa virginiana) is a North American native deciduous shrub valued for its fragrant pink flowers, attractive foliage, and ornamental red rose hips. This naturally occurring wild rose develops an upright, branching growth habit and is well suited to native gardens, wildlife landscapes, mixed shrub borders, and naturalized plantings.

During early to midsummer, Virginia Rose produces single, five-petaled pink flowers with prominent golden-yellow stamens. The blossoms are lightly fragrant and attract bees and other pollinating insects. Following successful pollination, rounded rose hips develop and gradually ripen to bright red, providing additional seasonal color and a potential food source for birds and other wildlife.

The green foliage may develop attractive shades of orange, red, and burgundy during autumn. Virginia Rose performs best in full sun and adapts to a range of soil conditions, including sandy, loamy, and moderately moist soils with good drainage. Its native origin and wildlife value make it a useful choice for pollinator gardens, naturalized borders, and ecological landscape plantings.
