The Prairie Rose is a trailing but shrubby rose native to North America. This tough, disease-resistant rose is beloved by pollinators and bears masses of single, mildly-fragrant, multi-hued flowers in early summer, typically after the majority of other once-blooming roses have faded. It is the parent plant of some popular ramblers including Baltimore Belle and Queen of the Prairies.
