A coarse, prickly shrub 3-7 feet tall. Prefers full sun and moderate moisture, it can tolerate poor soil and dry conditions. If left alone, nootka rose will form thickets, and it can also be grown in large containers. Tolerates salt spray in shoreline plantings. Large pink, five-petal flowers in May-July, and big red-purplish, pear-shaped rose hips in the winter. Nootka rose attracts bees and other pollinators and beneficial insects. Creates excellent cover and nesting sites. Browsed by deer and other wildlife.
