Rosa palustris
A perennial shrub, up to seven feet tall that is native to the eastern United States. It is a multi-branched shrub with the branches arcing gracefully. The flowers are a light pink and solitary or a few in a cluster, 1 to 2 inches in diameter. Occurs along stream banks, in swamps and marshes. Extremely fragrant pink blooms last for six to eight weeks in midseason, generally June through July. The fruit (rose hip) is red and fleshy on the outside with a mass of seeds inside the rose hip. The rose hips are eaten and spread by birds.
