Looking for a hardy, native plant that will make a statement in your garden? Look no further than Rosa setigera, also known as the Climbing Prairie Rose.

In late spring to early summer, Climbing Prairie Rose produces stunning deep pink, single-petaled flowers that can reach up to 2.5 inches across.
