Description

The Virginia Rose, or Rosa virginiana, is a deciduous shrub known for its charming pink flowers and robust nature. It is native to the eastern United States and is often found in a variety of landscapes, from coastal areas to mountainous regions. This rose is appreciated for its ability to thrive in less-than-ideal conditions, making it a versatile choice for gardeners.
