Dog-rose
Created by admin

Rosa canina, commonly known as the dog rose is a variable climbing, wild rose species native to Europe, northwest Africa and western Asia. It is a deciduous shrub normally ranging in height from 1–5 metres (3.3–16.4 ft), though sometimes it can scramble higher into the crowns of taller trees. The leaves are 5–15 centimetres (2.0–5.9 in) long and 2–5 centimetres (0.79–2.0 in) broad, with 5–7 (sometimes 9) rounded to shallowly lobed leaflets.

Rose hips are occasionally made into jam, jelly, and marmalade, or are brewed for tea, primarily for their high vitamin C content. They are also pressed and filtered to make rose hip syrup. Rose hips are used as an herbal remedy, most often as an infusion or tea.
