Is there such a thing as wild roses?

Here in northern Michigan on the side of the roads I have seen some wild flowers that looks just like small rose bushes. They even have that same beautiful scent.

Is there such a thing as wild roses?
Yes there is they are also called running roses or rose vine, very pretty if you have some chicken wire to run them up and across would be beautiful with different colours

Yes. The flowers that we see in nurseries are distant cousins of the wild rose. Back in the day there were no hybridizers and cross breeders. There were just the wild roses.





I have an amazing rose bush in my yard that came up on its' own. It is covered in tiny white blossoms in the springtime. They look like the blooms pictured only they grow en masse.
Reply:yes. see these pictures.
Reply:Absolutly! My parents backyard is, well used to be, all woods and there were tons of wild rose bushed back there. I loved going back there and just seeing all the different colors there were.
Reply:Yep they are beautiful!
Reply:Yes, I have them in my yard and they are invasive.
