Discover the beauty and resilience of Rosa pisocarpa, commonly known as Clustered Rose or Swamp Rose. A member of the Rosaceae family, this native broadleaf shrub thrives in the moist, temperate climates of the Pacific Northwest, from southern British Columbia to northern California. Distinguished by its lovely clusters of small, deep pink flowers, Clustered Rose will grace your garden from late spring through summer, enchanting pollinators and humans alike with its gentle fragrance. This versatile plant grows between 3 to 8 feet tall and prospers in sun to partial shade, making it suitable for various settings, including riparian zones and wetland areas.

Clustered Rose exceeds expectations as a barrier plant, forming an impenetrable thicket that provides essential cover for wildlife. Its pea-sized, purplish-red rose hips, high in vitamins A, C, and E, offer a valuable food source for birds and small mammals. This shrub's less aggressive nature compared to its Nootka Rose cousin, coupled with its tolerance for waterlogged soils, makes it ideal for erosion control and bank stabilization. Easy to grow and propagate, Rosa pisocarpa is a graceful addition to pollinator gardens and woodland edges, promising beauty and ecological benefits for your landscape.
