- This is a video all about the edible and medicinal pseudo fruits of the rose. Rose hips are extremely high in vitamin c and antioxidants and have been used for millennia as a food source and medicinal herb. Rose hips can be brewed into herbal teas and made into syrups, jams, jellies and marmalades. Rose hips are a wonderful wild edible food that can be foraged in the fall and hold well into the winter months. They can also be grown in the garden and will begin to form after the beautiful flowers of the rose wither away. In this video we talk a little on how to identify rose hips, their traditional uses throughout history, their nutritional content, some studies that have been done with them and some ways that you can eat them, craft them into remedies and use them for healthy skin.

I'd probably caution pesticides around people casually picking them berries
Yes! I could’ve sworn I added this in but it must’ve been a different video 🤦♀️ thank you so much for bringing this simple but super important piece of information up! I will make sure not to miss this in future videos. Much appreciated!
When we were kids,we got cod liver oil daily& we ate wild rose hips on the way to country school.we were never sick.
Thank you, I am from country of Georgia, and rose hip tea was usual winter tea in my childhood
Oh yeah rosehip jam is a whole other level of yumminess! Thank you for sharing your video.
Rose hip jam, you can't beat it...
This is a wonderful video! I never knew what all those Berry looking things were all over our crazy roses! Thank you 🙏🏽
Wow thank you so much! This is the first “super thanks” I’ve gotten on here. I really appreciate it! I’m glad you know what they are now 😊
I didn't know they were edible. I won't throw them away again. I'm glad your video popped up on my feed
I was out squirrel hunting with my dad yesterday, and we’ve been talking about identifying edible plants in the woods. I came across a red berry with a dried black flower on it, so I picked it and put it in my pocket. With a little research I found the name, and your video told me the rest 😁 Thank you!
I’m so glad you found the video and could use it as a resource!
This is awesome! We just bought property with a ton of wild roses. We weren't able to pick them because of the house build, but now that we finished the house we want to make sure we don't loose the chance to forge these guys.
That’s wonderful! Congrats on your new home and property! Enjoy those roses 😊
Great video!!! In my own research I've found that Rosa canina is the best fruit and seed oil you can use for skin care! GREAT for scars, wrinkles, any skin ailment!!!
You are a very knowledgeable young lady, your videos make an old man smile. If I had a granddaughter I would wish her to be like you. I hope you an your family are all well, take care an thanks.
This made me think of my grandfather. He would always take me on walks when I was little and point out certain plants to me that he liked. Looking back he was a big inspiration for all of this. Thank you! You take care as well!
Dang I just got a little smarter today. Those rose hips look so good. Gonna eat some from my rose bushes...
Haha! Nice! Have you tried them before? I have to do some catching up on your tours in Cali! I really enjoyed the first ones I saw but haven't been on here too much lately. Hope all is well!
@@SmallSeeds yes I've tried at least 1. It was kinda bitter and astringent. Might need to wait a bit longer to try my next one.
@@VirginiaFruitGrower They do taste better after the first frost for sure!
I didn't know that aluminum depletes vitamin c. Always great information. I love rose and hibiscus flowers
Cooking in general does this but I read in a few articles before, specifically on cooking with rosehips, that aluminum depletes it even more and messes with the color or taste. I am looking into it more now though and can't really find a lot of information on it besides those articles. So perhaps I will edit that out until I find more info. Thanks for bringing that up! Rose and hibiscus is a lovely combo! I do see rosehips and hibiscus flowers being used a lot together as well.
@@SmallSeeds it probably is true, I have to be careful to take off my ring when I'm making a face mask with bentonite clay because the metal neutralizes the clay! The clay actually pulls heavy metal toxins out of the body so it makes sense. I use a plastic measuring spoon to mix it instead of metal utensils.
Cooking with aluminium utensils is not good in general as it stays in the body and studies have shown it is a factor in causing alzheimers. Stainless steel is best.
You are wonderful! Thank you for the lesson. ❤
This video is incredibly comprehensive and helpful!
Thank you for so much information, as usual your presentations are amazing!
Beautifully spoken and illustrated, thank you for posting
Love the history and research you've done. Very thorough and helpful

You provided such an informative video.
Loved it.
Subscribed, sending my best wishes from India 🇮🇳
Thank You.
This kind of video is exactly what I was looking for. Great information!
Glad to hear!
THANKS FOR THE INFO MANY BLESSINGS ❤❤❤❤
I really like the history of the herbs, perfect videos
Thanks! The history is always fun to learn.
This is incredibly diligently researched and well produced, the presentation is fantastic and a beautiful presenter on top, great work and great video, seriously one of the best I've seen. I'm shocked at how good this is, well done!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it.
Very informative l used to throw the seeds of the rose in one area of my acreage so I didnt have to look so far to find my rose hips when they grow .Now I have a use for the seeds for other benefits. Thank you for your videos
Oh my this is wonderful. We have over 30 rose bushes. They have hundreds of these. I can't wait to show my husband what we can use them for. Thank you so much for sharing this. God bless
So glad to hear!! Enjoy them 😊
Loved all your information about rose hips. We have wild roses near our house my husbanded wanted to know if the little seeds can be used for replanting to have more rose bushes. After listening to your information, i will surely do all I can to harvest these little balls of wonder. Thank you so much.
Cute! Tysm for education 🌺
Thanks and of course! Glad you found it informative.
Very informative! Very common along the coast here in Massachusetts.
Thanks! That’s wonderful! I hope you find many great ways to utilize them 😊
Excellent
THanK You ....cant thank you enough been looking for info and this is perfect. You have done a great job presenting the case for uses of rosehips thank you. Subbed and liked as well.
Thanks! Glad you found it helpful ☺️
Simply...Thankyou.
wow, the amount of effort and research you put into this is amazing!! i will certainly be binging your channel, you’re brilliant, thank you! ❤️
Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy some of the other videos 🌿☺️💚
I had it for my Birthday years ago now ...that wild rose from friends ....XXX
We Kept Sky at there place / field .....XXX
ive just started take camu camu . i now will be trying this too
Amazing 😮😮
Im obsessed with rose hips. I got mail-order "Jubilee" rugosa roses two years ago, full of fantasies of bushes of red fruit in winter to make syrup out of... but Im in Central Texas, and the heat kills them to the ground once a year, then a freeze in February kills them down again. I get a couple flowers in late spring, but the fruit never has a chance to mature. Someday when Ive moved somewhere with a cooler climate, I bet I'll have a better chance.
Thank you for this lovely video! I recently had tried some for the first time and they remind me a little bit of tomatoes. So much so that I would love to make them into a nomato sauce for pastas if i can forage enough.
Thanks! They are a bit like tomatoes! That sounds lovely. If you do end up making it I'd love to hear about it.
You are so lovely, I enjoy both your informative video and your performance as an actress. Great video. Thanks for your work!
Thank you so much!!
My comment is this: when you pick hips you must choose the right time. Simple watch birds. Birds don’t eat hips until the first autumn frost. If you pick them before the frost it’s best to freeze them before you do anything else. A great vitamin c source.
What a great video! With Al the sickness going around I am trying the old fashioned live off the land. I have been dealing with processing nasturtiums for the last couple weeks. Now for the roses. Thank you so much for sharing all this information!❤
I have two rose bushes and never knew this information about rose hips. Now I will try the tea. Thanks for the information
That freezing thing I've been taught by an elderly Hungarian lady my Mom knew years ago to wrap heads of cabbage and freeze them for sweeter cabbage in your dishes ( works well for cabbage rolls ) makes peeling the leaves off easier for certain applications. As well as increasing sweetness ....wonder about that beta carotine thing , if it works for them as well.
Thank you ❤
Thank you.❤
My comments I made before I completed your video. I thought I new a lot about them till I watched this I had no idea I could eat the seeds and much more. Gotta say this has to be by far the most informative video I've come across on UA-cam and I have seen lots on rosehip. Just giving it a rewatch 😅 so much information
I’m so glad you found it informative! I hope it’s not too much for one video haha. Yeah, it’s just those hairs around the seeds that make it a bit difficult to get to them. They don’t taste great or anything but are definitely beneficial!
@@SmallSeeds it's all in one place thank you so much
i love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Am immensely enjoying this content and wonder if you get Herb Robert where you are, I am just learning about it and just scanned your uploads in anticipation of finding a vid about it... if you do make one ever I would be super happy. Sending much high vibe energy and gratitude for the work you have put in here to further the education of knowing this amazing planet. Thank you.
No videos on it yet but I will definitely consider it! We do have it growing around here but I’d like to have more experience with it before sharing. Thanks for the suggestion!
excellent
I eat my rose hips raw right off the plant so after a frost is the best time cause it soften the skin and pulp making it easier to get juice out by pressing it with my tough and spitting out the seeds I don't even notice the hairs , I like Multiflora Rose because it taste sweet and I don't have to worry about insecticides , I never made it into tea I'm not sure how much to use in relation to water, they're small so I imagine a lot
Must harvest!
This is by far the most informational video I've watched in the past 2 days of rigorously researching rose hips. There are hips taht appear to be ripe on the beach near me. Weird considering all the info I've found says to wait until fall. Even still, I picked a small batch and have them out drying in the sun now. Sadly i didn't know teh seeds were such a vital part and tossed all of them. :( Once I'm positive these are ripe I'll try again and make use of all the bits! Thank you so much for sharing all this wonderful knowledge
So glad you found it informative! Yes pick them when they are ripe. Most of the time people wait until frost with rosehips because they are wild species that ripen in fall. With rugosa and other species/varieties the hips ripen throughout the summer and fall and it’s best to pick them while you can! You can also just pop them in your freezer to mimic a frost. 😊
I picked somme before a frost but put them in my freezer overnight and worked perfect
I have a lot of wild rose hips. I picked them last year but didn't do much with them. There are more this year, and now the frost has come.
I have some ideas now, but part of the reason I was hesitant to do anything with the hips from last year is this.
How much heat can vitamin C withstand?
Vitamin C and heat
Vitamin C begins to denature at temperatures as low as 86 °F, according to a study in the International Journal of Scientific and Technology Research. The negative effects of heat increase significantly at 140 and even more at 170 °F.Aug 7, 2018
The above concurs with what I've seen previously. That Vitamin C is greatly depleted by high temps. Boiling, for example 6:07
So much I didn’t know about rose hips. Now if only I can collect them before the wildlife eat them. Last year the Rose Rugosa bush was full and I was waiting patiently for them to ripen but the wildlife did not and enjoyed them first.
We had the same issue last year with our Rugosa hips 😞
New friend here admiring your beautiful video.
Hello and thank you! Lovely name by the way!
@@SmallSeeds Oh, thank you so very much, dear sweet friend. Your channel’s name is also Divine🙏😇💖😍👏👏
Very very cool ... 👌👌 Success ... ⚘⚘ !!!
Thank you!!
Another lovely thing about rose hips ..is their hips..
Thanks comprehensively informative...
Can you eat them raw!
I have eaten them raw on many occasions just a few at a time and haven’t had any issues. However, the small hairs around the seeds can be irritating to some people so raw eating isn’t usually recommended.
im just trying to build my own sweet beard oil. rosehip is second on my list next to jojoba following whatever i find out next so far it seems to be fractionalized coconut oil
The petals are delicious in salads. The taste citrusy and like they smell at the same time. Different colors have different flavors
Did you leave them whole,or did you chop them up? Also does this apply to all roses? Thank you,& have a blessed weekend🌹🕊
I have them in my Garden ...I'll try one ...the Birds can't be that hungry....they haven't eaten them ....XXX
If you only pick soft pre-frost rosehips they don't have any hairs in them.
Why are my rose hips dry and brittle on the plant? 😢
There's mega wild rose hip grow around the land here
Do you have to remove the seeds before making tea or can I strain afterwards. Thanks for making this informative video
You can strain afterwards as long as the strainer doesn’t allow the irritating hairs through as well. If the holes in the strainer aren’t small enough for this I recommend a muslin bag or double layer of cheese cloth.
Im from PAPUA New guinea where to find rosehip please
Hi. What would you say is the best way to dry rosehips? Dehydrater or sunshine? Will they keep through the winter before being dryed? Thanks for any help you can give.
It is best to dry them before winter storage. I have never tried the sun drying method to be honest but both methods should work.
We only have these tiny roses and they never seem to produce hips.
Hello. I must do a job about rosehip. Where can I find scientyfic work about she? Great video. Congratulations
Sorry for such a late response. If it's not too late I have linked citations in the description. They are from scientific research and studies done on rosehips.
I was born in England in 1940, lived in the country, and remember rose hip syrup😆
Wow! Thank you for this comment! It's such a cool little piece of history in regards to the rosehips.
Hello! Thank you for the very informative video!
I have a question about foraging them:
I live in Southern Quebec, Canada and our wild rose hips start to look nice and ready in august before we are anywhere near the first frost. Last year I waited for the frost but it seemed to be too late and they were all eaten up or shrivelled. I am wondering if I should take the opportunity now to pick them before the frost and I was also wondering if you do this too or if you wait. It seems like each article I read they say wait for the first frost! But then I saw you hinted that you could possibly harvest them before?
Thanks!
Cam
If they are ripe now I would absolutely pick them! In fact our Rosa Rugosa hips are ripe and ready now and I’ve already started picking. Usually the ones that ripen in late fall are from wild rose species and species that flowers bloom once usually in late Spring or Early Summer. I will collect those types once they ripen in fall and some after the frost for better flavor. Ripening times for hips vary somewhat and if you were to leave those ones for frost they probably won’t be good by then like you mentioned. Perhaps it even has something to do with the climate differences but yeah I hope you have a nice time collecting and using them ☺️
A couple of English rosehip videos I watched indicated that you can freeze the rosehips yourself before using them
@@sarahwatts7152 Yes! Thanks for adding that 😊
I don't have any wild ones close by but have roses all around my yard and neighborhood. I just looked & they're all green. Do I wait til they turn red?
Yes. For harvesting they should be red in color or at least a deep orange-red depending on the rose species.
I've been picking rosehips this morning in Galway, Ireland & gave myself a right sore injury from the thorns 😢
Im wearing glows to avoid scraches
We have what I think is a dog rose, the hips get very soft and you can eat them like that even before the frost. They taste exactly like rosehip jam, sweetness and everything, no processing required.
Are the Rosa rugosa the same in that regard? That would be amazing. Cause I hate processing them.
Just straight up eating or squeezing them without any processing like with our soft pre-frost dog roses is quite convenient.
We have other roses too that are completely inedible at that same stage.
Rosa Rugosa is a lot harder to eat compared to smaller ones. The centers are filled with lots of larger seeds and hairs so it doesn’t make it a very nice experience. Eating the outer part may be worth it once they are soft but definitely not ones you’d just pop in your mouth lol.
@@SmallSeeds Okay thank you, that is good to know, then I'll just propagate our dog rose.
I collect a lot of wild rose hips in CO. I want to make some sort of facial oil with them. Do you have an easy method for that. ? Just soaking them in jojoba?
You could just soak them in oil but I would recommend using a hot method of infusion (gently heating the oil with the hips in it using some type of double boiler) or the alcohol intermediary method. I have a video on the channel about the alcohol intermediary method if that helps. Using one of these method would most likely extract more of the rosehip’s benefits. If you want to just soak them in oil, you can once they are dried for about 4-6 weeks.
Were you find the jar you put the rosehip syrup in
I actually found that one at a thrift store! You may be able to find similar ones by looking up “glass medicine bottle with glass stopper,” or “glass apothecary bottles.”
Hold up hold up hold up, I’ve known rose hips are good, but didn’t know what they looked like...... I have them all over my yard?! Yooooo
Can someone tell which varieties and species of roses and roses hips are edible?
Every variety of rose hips are edible. Some are just more desirable than others like the hips of Rosa Rugosa.
Has anyone tried to make fruit vinigar with them ?
Sorry for the late response. I haven’t tried this but it sounds great 😊
They look like small pomegranates. I wonder if there is any relationship between them.
The rosa rugosa hips really do look like little pomegranates! Most other rosehips don't look as similar though. Roses are actually in the same family as strawberries, apples, plums and a lot of other common fruits.
Does boiking kill the vitamen C in the Rose hips?
The vitamin c definitely diminishes with boiling, drying or any processing. I wish I knew the exact percentage but a good amount still remains.
What about the rose hip hairs in eating them raw how do they taste
The hips themselves taste sweet and somewhat tart with a flavor reminiscent of tomato. I have eaten raw hips on many occasions, just a few at a time, and haven’t had issues with the hairs but some people may be more sensitive to them so they usually aren’t recommended for raw eating. Sometimes the hairs do have a scratchy texture when eaten but in some hips you don’t even notice them. Once they have gone through a frost they do taste better and because the consistency is more like a jam and the hairs are less noticeable.
Is Rosa rugosa not also invasive where you live?
Nope! We have a lot of trouble with the multiflora rose in our area though. I recently found out Rugosa is invasive in coastal areas/dune habitats.
Nyponsoppa yes! I am swedish :D
I have never tried it but am very curious!
I make it like this:
Cut the rosehips. Add in a bowl with boiling water. I add some date syrup instead of sugar. Then mix it with a mixing stick. Get rid of the seeds with a strainer... then you will have a soup... in Sweden we eat it warm with a spoon of cream on top and the little button shaped almond macaroons called mandelbiskvi. :) (i dont know if they exist in other countries)
9:01 the label says elderberry
Always mark the spot where the roses grow, you know for sure.
They are like little treasures!
Somewhere I read that one rose hip contains as much vitamin C as 8 oranges . Also I do not recommend eating the rose hip seeds, used in tea is fine. Because the seeds contain protein lectins. Making powder and eating them from these seeds is a big no no.
I wonder how much goodness (vit c especially) you lose when heating to prepare the syrup?
Great point! Definitely something I want to look into more. Especially when it comes to better ways for processing them to preserve more of the beneficial components.
@@SmallSeeds
How about freeze drying them?
However, if you use it in teas or syups, the heat used in the process will destroy Vitamin C.
@reibersue4845 I would love to get into freeze drying. Freeze driers seem to be very expensive but definitely something worth saving towards!
Which roses produce black hips?
Rosa pimpinellifolia which is usually called burnet or scotch rose.
@@SmallSeeds thank you very much for you reply
Information urdu meining please
Hey girl I like your hips...lol
Very informative
😂 gotta love the hip puns!
Can you please tell me if the seeds are really poisonous and you have to remove them? The lady in one other video I watched said they are poisonous. 🤷🏻♀️
They're not poisonous as far as I know, but they are surrounded by lots of irritant hairs that you probably don't want in your mouth or throat, although some people don't seem to mind them.
@@dexine4723 Thanks for answering that!
We gwt wild roses here. Small pink bushes with thorns. The berries that come off we call itchy bum berries. Because when eaten you get an itchy bum. Lol.
Haha 😂 that’s great.
Would split them open and put them down the tops of friends when I was a kid would make u so so itchy 🤣🤣 I've picked them for years and also get them in a supplement when not in season like now
Also can be bad for choking on the seeds since they're so hairy when eating raw. just a hasty mistake 😅 Great video thanks
We called them “itchy backs” .
