--><p>Other species of sect. Systylae, hybrids, and cultivars that spread by stoloniferous shoots and are mostly sterile have escaped from cultivation and are occasionally found. One is Rosa sempervirens Linnaeus, evergreen rose, native to southern Europe, Asiatic Turkey, and northern Africa and found in California (B. Ertter and W. H. Lewis 2008); introduced in 1827 in France, it may also be the basis of a collection from Massachusetts (B. N. Gates 15713, 8 Nov. 1942, CONN), noted as doubtless an escape and spreading by rooting freely at tips of canes, and in Oklahoma, where a scrambling vine was collected (P. Kirtley 68, 6 Oct. 1935, MO). Such occasional findings of R. sempervirens can be expected in mostly warmer areas of the continent where it is readily recognized by its sprawling stems to 60 dm, and usually persistent, leathery, and lustrous leaflets with terminal leaflets distinctly longer than laterals. The species is introduced sporadically in the West Indies, Central America, and South America.</p><!--
--><p>Rosa ×moschata Herrmann, musk rose, an escape from mostly southern latitude gardens, is found in Alabama, Illinois (not confirmed), and Louisiana. It is identified by long climbing or prostrate stoloniferous stems reaching 90 dm with erect or slightly curved prickles, leaflets ovate to lanceolate-elliptic, 5–50(–70) mm, mostly glabrous, finely serrate, and adaxially not lustrous, flowers to 5 cm diam. in clusters having a musky fragrance, petals white, or less commonly, pink, often double, sepals narrowly lanceolate and long-acuminate to 20 mm, strongly reflexed, dark red or purple-brown hips.</p>
