Our database lists bloom color of both
Wild Prairie Rose (
Rosa arkansana
)
and
Rose (
Rosa acicularis
)
as Medium Pink. Maybe White needs to be added?

You are most welcome, Benny. Happy to be of help. Thank you for the thumb;s up and the acorn. Most kind of you.
Lin, I hesitated to post, but I did a whole bunch of reading and looking and found lots of pictures of both pink and white.

I will propose that the white form be added.
