wild roses
Uncultivated flowering shrubs
Wild roses are rose species that grow naturally without cultivation, distinguished from the hybrid garden roses bred for large, showy blooms.
They typically have five petals, simple flowers, and produce rose hips in autumn.
The term evokes uncultivated beauty and hardy resilience: Wild roses climbed along the fence line.
Many domesticated roses are grafted onto wild rose rootstock.
