Multiflora Rose

A common scrub found in pastureland and hedges. Bushy shrubs in over-grown pastureland with boundiful, white, 1/2" round, simple rose blooms in clusters. Commonly planted for hedgerows in fields for its consolidated growth and wild food value - now considered a somewhat invasive alien.
