Guest guest Posted June 5, 2007 Report Share Posted June 5, 2007 I got some rose hips from someone last fall but they were all dried out inside. Apparently they need to be picked sooner. Does anyone know when? Also, are rose hips from any type of rose good or just certain roses? TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 6, 2007 Report Share Posted June 6, 2007 Here is a link I hope may help. http://www.seedsofknowledge.com/rosehips2.html Storing and Using Rose Hips by Brenda Hyde Allow the roses to die naturally on the bush and rose hips will form. They will start out green and turn to yellow, then red. Harvest them when they become completely red, after a frost. They should be soft but not mushy. Break the stems off as you pick them.
