Round Leaf Hawthorn vs Smooth Rose

Getting its name from rounded, toothed leaves, the Round Leaf Hawthorn is a winter hardy shrub that grows small, red, berry-like fruits.

Commonly used for landscaping, this shrub can also be found along stream banks and in wooded areas. Caution is advised when handling the Round Leaf Hawthorn, as it can have sharp thorns approximately 1" long.

The Smooth Rose is a hardy shrub and is nearly-thornless. This plant is a vigorous grower that is covered in the summer with fragrant, pale pink and white flowers. In the fall, this shrub produces bright-red rose hips that are high in Vitamin C making them great for syrups and preserves.

The Smooth Rose, also known as the Meadow Rose or Prairie Rose, is great for attracting bees and other pollinators to your garden.
