Rosa Rugosa Report- Good Harbor, originally uploaded by captjoe06.
The Rosa Rugosa that lines the shore road by the footbridge at Good Harbor Beach is starting to sprout it’s foliage.
It is quite a contrast between the bright green oily foliage and the thorny dry stems that support them.
It won’t be long before they are covered with green and the beautiful roses appear.
I’ll be documenting this particular bush’s development this year from dormant through the foliage, flowering, and then the fruit bearing stage.
