Discussion
In the flora area, subsp. idaeus primarily is an escape from cultivation. M. L. Fernald (1919b) reported a thornless form (forma inermis Kaufmann) as apparently native to the Magdalen Islands, Quebec, and Minnesota. L. H. Bailey (1941–1945) concluded that typical R. idaeus might be native to the northern regions of North America. Subspecies idaeus usually has narrow prickles but rarely can have some bristles.
