Would you like to learn how to draw a wild rose? This easy, step-by-step floral drawing tutorial can help you master the wild rose outline.

There are 100 to 150 rose species, but only about 10 of them were used in the cultivation of the garden rose. That means there are a lot of wild rose types!

As you draw this old-fashioned flower, you will notice that it doesn't look much like the roses that fill bouquets in flower shops.

Wild roses typically have a single layer of just five petals while cultivated roses are double, with multiple sets of petals that give the flower a "full" appearance.

Despite their smaller flower size, wild roses do have one advantage - their smell! Many cultivated roses have lost their sweet scent as they were selected for size and color.

But wild roses use their perfume to attract beneficial pollinators.
