Beach Rose hips

Day 286/Year 2
The fruit of the rose plant........

"Rose hips are used for herbal tea, jam, jelly, syrup, soup, beverages, pies, bread, wine, and marmalade. They can also be eaten raw, like a berry, if care is used to avoid the hairs inside the fruit."

I NEVER knew this about rose hips. Learn something new everyday I guess.

  1. Thanks for you kind comment on QDP and I wish you the same - health, happiness and lots of photo ops for 2012. It's great to see that you have persevered for a second round of 365. Your bird/duck pictures are a very well done.
