Nootka Rose (Oregon Natives Series 1)

Our nootka rose did not bloom yet so sharing a shot I like from last year. I had this idea of starting an album on Oregon natives for a long time but did not have the time to do it. Hope sharing this image as the first in the series will motivate me to shoot more this spring.

Please prefer to plant native plants in your yards. They are not only beautiful but also have a vital ecological function. They feed the native wildlife that they evolved together with. Biological diversity is declining with a rapid pace, and we must do whatever we can to slow it down. Best way to start might be by planting natives in our yards.
