Rosa 'Nearly Wild'

Nearly Wild Rose

Nearly Wild rose bears open pink flowers with pale centers and visible yellow stamens. Its compact, rounded framework flowers repeatedly through the growing season, with hips developing when some spent blooms are left in place.

The plant develops a rounded outline. Growth is moderate. The leaves are shed for winter.

Choose a site in full sun or partial shade. Provide acidic, humus-rich, well-drained soil and maintain even moisture. Remove dead, diseased and crossing canes in late winter or early spring.
