Beautiful Nootka Rose has larger flowers than the clustered wild rose. Pink flowers are usually borne singly (but sometimes in pairs or triplets) at the ends of branches. Fruits are relatively large purplish-red hips. The stems of Nootka Rose are variously prickly. Nootka is great as a barrier plant, growing into an impenetrable thicket. Its fragrance fills the air in a seaside habitat. It is valuable for stabilizing banks, especially along streams. Grows 2-9'.
