rosehip

Thorny bush's berry

A rosehip is the fruit of a rose plant—the round or oval seed pod that develops after the flower fades.

Rosehips are rich in vitamin C and commonly used in teas, jellies, and herbal remedies: rosehip tea, rosehip oil.

They range from red to orange and appear in late summer through autumn.
