Rosa canina · Whole Dried Rosehips · Tart Botanical Fruit

Brightly coloured and pleasantly tart, Rosehips are the colourful fruits that develop on rose plants after flowering and have a long history in European kitchen and herbal traditions.

Our Rosehips are identified as Rosa canina, the dog rose, recognised for its delicate flowers and red to orange-red ripe hips. Once dried, the fruit develops a concentrated fruity aroma and gently tangy flavour.

At Flowers from my Meadow, we keep it pure and uncomplicated: whole dried Rosehips, carefully packed for your botanical pantry and loose-leaf blends.

How to Prepare

For a traditional Rosehip infusion: Lightly crush a few whole dried Rosehips, add approximately 1–2 teaspoons to 250ml hot water and steep for 15–20 minutes or simmer gently for a fuller flavour. Strain thoroughly through a fine filter before serving.

Rosehips contain fine internal seed hairs, which can irritate the mouth and throat if not removed or strained out properly.

Precautions

Avoid if allergic to rose-family fruits or related plants. If pregnant or breastfeeding, managing kidney stone problems or taking prescription medication, consult a healthcare professional before concentrated medicinal preparations. Rosehips have a valued place in traditional seasonal fruit and botanical wellbeing preparations, alongside their natural culinary versatility.
