Rosa Nutkana Var. Macdougalii

Macdougal's rose, scientifically known as Rosa nutkana var. macdougalii, is a rare and beautiful wild rose native to the Pacific Northwest of North America. This variety is prized for its delicate pink flowers and fragrant aroma, which make it a favorite among horticulturists and garden enthusiasts. It thrives in moist, shady environments and is often found along riverbanks and forest floors in its natural habitat. Due to its limited range and vulnerability to habitat loss, it is considered a conservation concern. Despite its delicate appearance, Macdougal's rose is a resilient plant that symbolizes the unique biodiversity of its native region.
