Woods Rosa, Rosa woodsii
The Wild Garden: Hansen's Northwest Native Plant Database:
"At maturity, the Wood’s Rose can reach heights of 6’, but more commonly grow to 3’, with a spread of 3-6’. The leaves are alternate and pinnately compound, with five to nine serrated leaflets measuring ¼ - 21/2” long. The thorns of the Wood’s Rose are straight or slightly curved and tiny, only 1/5 – 1/3” long. The thorns are straighter and generally less troublesome than those of other roses, being less likely to tear skin and clothing.
The flowers of the Wood’s Rose are small, only 2-2 ½” wide, ranging in color from light to dark pink and smelling sweet and strong. The shrub is literally covered in blooms, and although each flower generally lasts for only one day, others follow quickly and the entire shrub blooms for many weeks.
After flowering, small, round fruit called hips form. The seed, which are covered in stiff hairs that can irritate the mouth and hands, are stored inside the fruit"

Legal Structures for Intentional Communities in the United States
One of the long range projects here at Oasis goes beyond the physical of plant and sun and water in the usual permaculture effort to the social. When one delves deeply into permaculture thought one finds that this is not new. Community is indeed baked into sustainability. We are very fond of the folks at Twin Oaks that wrote this article up and plan to feature a film that involves many communes across the country. Here we are just introducing some nuts and bolt.
