Rose hips are harvested from a species of climbing rose known as dog rose, a popular garden ornamental grown for its oval-shaped blooms. The hips, also referred to as haws, are the fruits of the plant, and are best when left on the stems until late fall and after the first frost.
These sweet gems are deseeded to remove the tiny hairs that surround the seeds. Once dried, rosehips are suitable for use in tea blends or to use to make jams, syrups and cordials.
