Frozen Berries


In this stunning image you can see young rose hips in December. Rose hips, also rose haws and rose hep, are the fruit of the rose plant that is typically red-orange in color. Roses are used in jams, soups and wine, but can also be eaten fresh if care is taken to avoid the coarse hairs. They are particularly high in vitamin c, one of the richest plant sources available.
