To learn about how multiflora rose ended up in North America, how it spread so fast, and how it impacts our native plant communities check out this video: ruclips.net/video/0KrIk1KckPU/видео.html Have any stories or identification tips about roses? Let us know in the comments!
Glad to have stumbled upon this informative and entertaining video that doesn't waste time or have annoying sound track. Yes , more native rose videos please 😊
Excellent video, there isn't enough easy to understand information out there about the differences. Can't you also look at the prickles, multiflora has thick curved and natives have thin straight? Yes please do a native rose video!
I hope the rose in my yard is the native rose. It has pink petals with yellow towards the center. The bees and birds love it. Going to check for hairy armpits. 🤞
Multiflora rose will hold its leaves longer than the native species and also leaf out sooner in the spring. Here in south-central KY they often have a few leaves on them all winter and can still be identified by them. Next winter I can get some good pics and footage and put a video together.
Another way I tell them apart in flower is that the native rose flower shape is very similar to the Flowering Dogwood and the center of the Multiflora is "hairier". I'm currently working on removing numeorus Multifloras from my 2d uninhabited property and my sister's property. It's a delicate process made more difficult by the proximity to natives we don't want to harm. I've resorted to mixing herbicide and using a brush to paint it on the leaves to avoid overspraying. Takes longer but worth it.
If you can trim the multiflora back to the stump you can apply herbicide to the cut stump. Uses even less herbicide and may be a little faster way to clear it out.
@@BackyardEcology Yes, absolutely faster. We do that when we can get to the multiflora directly. A problem is a good portion of them are so dense and also many are intermixed with Greenbrier (which we've always called "Catbriars") or poison ivy, sometimes both. We don't like either of them, per se, but they're native and support wildlife, so we try to leave them unless they're near where we routinely spend time outdoors.
Oh no,! I just came here from the newer native rose video and a minute into this I'm finding that 100% of what I thought was fragrant wild rose all over the state of Maryland is invasive. And that wonderful smell is probably mixing with the intoxicatingly wonderful smell of invasive honeysuckle. Too demoralizing; now I'm on the search for pink roses...
This was helpful, thank you very much! Apparently my rose plant was grafted on multiflora rose. I saw online people are saying to cut back the parts of the plant you no longer want. What're you thoughts?
Native roses or multiflora? I think the native roses would be best in the ground and I wouldn't grow multiflora for any reason because if it makes fruit it is going to get spread to other places by the birds.
Thank you for the video!!! I know now that the roses growing out in the field are more than likely the multiflora rose just by their shape. I'll have a closer look this weekend to confirm. One follow up question though. There was some type of rose growing in the field west of our house, not a native for sure, but with long trailing stems - some type of "rambling rose" I guess they're called. It has small pink "double" blooms. I HATE that thing...everywhere the canes touch the ground, they take root. I hope that I've finally managed to get most of it dug out! Is this some variation of the multiflora rose, or is it just some rose the previous owners probably planted that went all rogue?
Glad you found it helpful! Chances are roses growing in a field, especially if it was disturbed in the recent past, are going to be multiflora. Without seeing the double bloom pink rose, it is hard to tell exactly what it is. Chances are it was planted at an old homesite that is long since gone and was a variety popular at that time. Our farm has all sorts of flowering plants growing in odd spots that I am sure are from an old farmstead dating to pre 1950 which is about as far back as I can find pictures of the property.

Yes..please a native rose video
Stay tuned! It is in the works so hopefully it will be out within a month or so.
Yes, a video describing the different native roses is a good idea - thanks for the info!
Thanks! Stay tuned - the native rose video is coming soon!
❤ native roses! Please make more videos !
More to come!
Yes
Very informative 🙏
Thanks!
I’m much better equipped to observe the native plants on our acreage this year, thanks in part to this channel and podcast. I’m so excited! 🌱💐
Thank you! Glad you are finding Backyard Ecology content helpful!
I love your podcasts, and now your video's.
Thank you! Glad you like them.

Thank you! I feel the same way about music on educational videos. Native rose video is in the works!
Excellent video, there isn't enough easy to understand information out there about the differences. Can't you also look at the prickles, multiflora has thick curved and natives have thin straight?
Yes please do a native rose video!
Thank you! Stay tuned for the native rose video!
some great info there, great video buddy.
Thanks 👍

If it has pink blooms there is a very good chance it is one of the native roses.
I need this video but for Winter id

The native roses are out there! You will have to look for them and sort them out from the tons of mutliflora rose, but they can still be found.

As long as you keep any multifloral sprouts pruned back it shouldn't be a problem.
Thanks!! I just found this in my yard and was waiting for the blooms to see their color. They are white. Can I keep it in a pot?

Did you do a native rose video? I searched your channel but couldn't find it. If it's there and I missed it, I'm sorry.
It is in the works! Hope to have it out in the next few weeks.
@@BackyardEcology awesome! Thanks
when you say, multiflora rose, is this the same rose thats used as rootstock in the rose industry ?
Yes, multiflora is one of the rootstocks used in the rose industry.
Multiflora rose also has a potty mouth! Every time I get tangled up closely in one I hear all kinds of swear words!
Hairy is scary!
