I have taken this picture on my last walk on Ialomita Valley. It’s the place where many wild roses are growing. In the summer I go to admire the beauty of the flowers and in autumn to pick its fruits for tea.
This wild rose shrub has been known since the Stone Age. It is found everywhere at the edges of the road, at the forests and can grow up to a height of 3-5 m, sometimes even higher. Wild rose is not only a distinguished decoration of our gardens, which enjoys the eyes with its extraordinary beauty, but also a real deposit of vitamins and useful properties.
It blossoms from May to June. Its flowers will certainly be useful because a decoction of the rosehip can help treat almost all diseases and significantly improve overall health.
“Wild roses are fairest, and nature a better gardener than art.”Louisa May Alcott

Wildflowers are so beautiful. Nice quote as well. Beautiful photography as always.
Thank you, Carol! In the wilderness we find the most beautiful and unexpected things.
Nice capture!
I have never heard of the tea tho…
Is very good. Unfortunately I can not drink a lot because I have problems with my stomach (ulcer) and is not recommended in this case.
Nice photo. I haven’t tried the rosehip tea though.
You should try it. Is very good.

You are right,Witty! Nature speaks to each of us with all these beauties!
