Rosa Glauca shrub rose
I am a BIG fan of this rose and wish it bloomed much longer in my garden than it does. Although it's a cultivated shrub, I love its simple, wild look. The leaves are a lovely grey-green, the stems reddish brown and the flowers just a bit more than an inch (perhaps an inch and a half) across. In a few weeks the bush will bear orangy red hips.

Stunning perfection!
Beautiful photo. That pink color is simply lovely!
Beautifully captured!
me too... yes this is beautiful rose...
The brambly wild pink rose is one of my favorites, too, and I often see it by the side of roads along my path. It truly does offer something nice to look at year round.
I love roses of all kinds. These have just the right spot of color! Hope you are having a fabulous weekend with your husband. :)
Very pretty.
Gorgeous! I love the simple flowers.
Lovely photo! It has kept its "wild" appearance very well. It looks much batter than many on the more cultivated ones.
Too beautiful---I love it too. MB
Great shot, welcome to Sunday Stills..:-)
It does look like a wild rose! Lovely.
And here I thought all roses were wild! Maybe it was just the one I knew! :) This is a wonderful flower and it does have kind of a "wild" look to it.
Re your comment about gators: You needn't worry. They don't usually bother humans unless they decide you're good to eat and they only eat once a month.
Very pretty flowers.
It is sweet indeed. Does it smell as prettily as it looks?
What I like about them is how little care they require to produce all those lovely blooms.
It's a beauty and I love your description :D)
I can see why you like these so much.
What a beautiful little flower!
These are beautiful flower blossoms.
Beautiful flower.
That's a lovely rose bush.
I love this picture. Here in Alaska we are seeing a lot of wild roses ... they look a lot like this one, but ... well .. wilder! ... I will post pictures eventually.
A perfect composition !
Wonderful, delicate colours.
OH what a beauty!

So pretty! And I love how you described why you love this rose so much. Excellent post.
Beautiful! I like the wild roses and this is very similar.
i adore the color....and the way you describe it!!!
What a beauty!
It is a beautiful bloom, I like how simple it is too.
