I was married and honymooned in Maine an there were roses growing everywhere right by the water where we stayed. We now live on a lake and I want to line the shore with roses like we saw in Maine. The roses will have to be tolerant of a lot of water being at the edge of the water. Also I don't know if the roses we saw were wild or not? Thanks for any help you can give me.

There was a question by someone else recently on the plant ID category ( on June 25) about a reddish rose in Maine. It was Rosa Woodsii. ck the pix on this site. it looks pink but there are more than one variety. if not this one maybe maybe a Rosa rugosa?? Give us more description. Good Luck

Pat Austin is a water-hog, and bloom well in partial shade. Pat has shiny & glossy foliage. Roses with glossy foliage like Sweet Promise (Meilland Romantica) roses also like it soaking wet. My FlowerCarpet Coral (with glossy & shiny foliage) can handle spring flood better than Knock-outs (matte foliage).
