There's something sweeter about stumbling upon the wild, untamed beauty that nature offers in the inviting, warm days of spring. Such was the case one lovely afternoon while I was taking a bicycle ride along the river.
Do you know how to tell if a rose is 'wild'? If you'd like to learn more about the difference between 'wild' roses and hybridized ones, the following link is very informative...http://www.americanmeadows.com/the-wild-roses. So, count them...there are 'five' petals and they are pink so these fit the true definition of 'wild'. Seeing them in person I would just say they seemed a bit unruly...yet, striking in their beauty...
I wonder if a 'six' petaled rose (which I am not even certain exists) is as lucky as a four leaf clover? :)
