Growing and Maintenance Tips:


Rosa palustris thrives along the margins of bogs, marshes, and waterways. It suckers to form a dense shrub and its rose hips provide food for wildlife.
It is ideal for naturalized areas, native plantings, and wild gardens. Grow in a fertile, moist soil in full sun or partial shade.
