50 Seeds Dog Rose Brier Rose Rosa Canina

Dog Rose, also known as Brier Rose, is a hardy wild rose species valued for its informal, arching growth and simple single blooms. It produces fragrant pale pink to white flowers in late spring and summer, followed by bright red rose hips in autumn that add seasonal interest to hedgerows and wildlife-friendly gardens.
This rose works well in mixed borders, native plantings, hedgerows, and naturalized areas where its scrambling habit can be allowed to spread. The hips are traditionally used for culinary purposes such as jams, syrups, and teas, while the flowers support pollinating insects. It is a tough, adaptable shrub that tolerates a range of conditions once established.
