Many of the roses burned by the fire are resprouting. Our name “Rose Woods” reflects the dominant plants we grow, roses, of course, and many species of trees, especially oaks from around the world.
Wild roses are my first love so i’ll begin this tour with a collection in a garden section called the Stone Rail.named for a layer of rock from the tilted-up sandstone beds ( dating from 140 to 20 million years ago ) that make up the western flank of the Central Valley at Lake Berryessa.
This is the lowest point of our land often wet and watery in winter so appropriately the hedge of wild roses growing above the rock is from a Darlingtonia bog in Trinity county. Called the “Peafruited” rose for its clusters of rounded, pea sized hips, the scientific name is Rosa pisocarpa A. Gray 1872. Few flowers are visible, it's just beginning to bloom on this 1st day of June, 2021. Also part of this hedge are Rosa rudiuscula and Rosa serafinii with Rosa glauca at the base of a Burr Oak from the eastern U.S.
