Recently I posted a photo of a wild rosebud, and I decided to share how the flower looks when it’s blooming.
Rosa canina, commonly known as the dog rose in English, is a kind of wild rose that’s native to Europe, northwest Africa, and western Asia.
You can find them everywhere in Bulgaria, and they usually start blooming a few weeks before the roses.
The bud is not very different from a normal rosebud. However, when it blooms, it has only five petals.
The rosehips from this plant are used to make tea or jam. They are also very rich in vitamin C.

Rose is gorgeous … I would have in my garden
Thank you very much, I love them too!
Very nice picture. Now that I’m a little more wiser about the facts this rose looks quite yummy!
Hehe, it can be yummy indeed if made properly. 🙂
Thanks for the information about Roses, I love Roses very much but did not know you could make them into jam . I would like to know more about it
I have tried jam with both petals and hips, but I have never tried making it myself. I should look it up. Thank you very much for stopping by!
Years back,I had a garden and many roses.Now I do not have a garden.But I love all flowers.Thanks for sharing the beautiful photos.
Thank you so much for stopping by! Flowers are always beautiful, even just on a photo.
On one hand, I sorta prefer things stay the way they are naturally but on the other hand, I admire the skill it takes to cultivate a breed…
I feel exactly the same way; cultivated roses are simply gorgeous.
The are, but they’re just so unnatural. Why does that matter to me? Hard to say…
That’s true, but we are now so used to them that people rarely think about it.
I really shouldn’t either, but…
Thank you for sharing this beauty of a post. Just love it!
Thank you so much for your kind words!
I’ve always wanted a wild rose because they have rose hips high in vitamin C.
Yes, the rose hips are very beneficial and can be used for many things.
It is certainly a beauty, simplicity and excellence in five petals. Thank you for the pleasure of seeing this beautiful image and for the information shared
