The Daily Bucket - wood rose

June 10, 2018

Pacific Northwest

We have two kinds of wild roses in my neighborhood. The vigorous Nootka roses revel in full light, and hence are abundant on roadsides, in fields, by the beach, encroach onto lawns, and will form thickets unless actively chopped back. The other rose prefers shady woods with filtered sunlight and intertwines its spindly prickly canes with other understory shrubs like salal, snowberry, oceanspray, twinberry and vines of dewberry or honeysuckle. Its small pink flowers smell as sweet as the Nootka’s but there are so many fewer you have to get quite close to catch their fragrance.

The Daily Bucket is a nature refuge. We amicably discuss animals, weather, climate, soil, plants, waters and note life’s patterns.

We invite you to note what you are seeing around you in your own part of the world, and to share your observations in the comments below.
