Good morning, I have had this wild rose bush for 3 years now and this year she is sporting perfect white 5 petal roses in addition to the pink??? It is about 5 ft tall and extremely healthy I have had probably 6 or 7 white so far. Now here is yet another question if I were to harvest the seeds from the white rose pods/hips I wonder if I could then get a strictly white 5 petal wild rose bush??? These are very fragrant both the pink and the white and are both 3 inches wide in full bloom so they are fairly large single petal blooms. If you look in the far right corner of the photo that shows the pink blooms you will see a white that had just passed I also have a morning glory vine mixed in this bush so you will also see those leafs through the rose bush.Thank you in advance for any and all information:)
I've had those as well; they're a variety of wild roses, if I recall correctly they're closest to Rosa acicularis which (on mine, at least) routinely throws blooms of two colours. It's worth a try to collect the hips of the white blossoms to see if you can get an exclusively white bush, but I wouldn't count on it.
