This wide ranging native is a staple of moist areas but is perfectly happy to grow in any landscape location and is a plant that brings a lot to the American Beauties landscape. Round and rather dense, it has deep green, 7 leaflet foliage that covers the plant well and provides excellent cover and nesting for a long list of native birds and small mammals. Even better, Swamp Rose has a long blooming period with 3" diameter single flowers of bold pink starting in June and continuing into September. These flowers provide a constant source of nectar for native bees and butterflies while the fruit from these flowers are a great bird food source. Plant this selection on its own or in groups and you and the local wildlife will love what it adds to the garden.
