The rosehip genus is very ancient and grows wild in the mountains of Iran and the Himalayas. Ever since man began to collect and use wild fruits for food and treatment, he has become one of the most famous and familiar plants. It was used in writing, medicines and paints were extracted from it, beautiful flowers and fruits served as decoration, its thorns were used as protection. According to legend, Satan, having been overthrown by God from heaven, decided to rise there again. To do this, he chose a wild rose, whose straight trunks with spikes could serve as a ladder for him. But the Lord guessed his thoughts and bent the trunks of the wild rose. And since then, the spikes have become not straight, but curved down and cling to everything that touches them. In Greece, there is such a legend: the beloved of the goddess of love Aphrodite, the son of the king of Cyprus, Adonis, died during a hunt. Having learned the terrible news, Aphrodite rushed in search of her beloved. Through the mountains, steep passes she moved, not noticing how the branches lashed her face and prick her feet with sharp stones and thorns of thorns. Drops of blood rolled down her wounded legs, and where they stained the grass, red roses grew. Aphrodite found the body of the deceased Adonis in the forest, mourned him for a long time, and then ordered a tender anemone to grow from the blood of her beloved. Since then, every year anemones bloom in the forest, followed by rose hips.

Rose (rosehip). Botanical description, plant history, legends and folk traditions, cultivation and use
The name of the rose (rosehip) comes from the Celtic word "rgod", which means "red", - according to the color of the fruit. Common wild rose, often called "dog rose", is an unpretentious shrub, which is a wild ancestor of the beautiful varieties of roses, sung by many poets around the world, all times and peoples. The well-known Ukrainian botanist S. I. Ivchenko believes that the name of the rose comes from the ancient Medo-Persian word "vrodon", which in ancient Greek was transformed into "rose" and was adopted by the Romans. This is to some extent confirmed by the spread of roses from Persia through Greece and Rome to Central Europe. Why have they written and will continue to write so much about the rose? Because the ode is deservedly considered the queen of flowers. One of the German fairy tales about the sleeping beauty arose as a result of observing the blooming rosehip flower, which closes at night and blooms in the early morning towards the rays of the sun. In an ancient Indian epic, it is said that the goddess of beauty Lakshmi was born from a rosebud. The ancient Greeks explained the bright color of rose flowers by the fact that the goddess of beauty and love Aphrodite played with rose flowers and accidentally pricked her divine finger on thorns. And drops of the goddess's blood dyed the petals in the bright red color of the morning dawn. True, during the time of the Basileus in Byzantium, red varieties of roses were not allowed in the imperial gardens because of the rough, "plebeian" color. Only pure white roses were recognized, symbolizing the purity of thoughts and deeds of emperors. Rosehip grows everywhere - in the Far East, Siberia, the Urals and Central Asia, the Caucasus and the Baltic states. In total, more than 400 species of wild rose grow in the temperate zone of Russia. Rosehip is considered the king of vitamin-bearing plants. 100 g of its fruit pulp contains 1500 mg of vitamin C, 5 mg of carotene, vitamins B2, P, K. There are many sugars and organic acids, mineral salts, iron salts and other substances beneficial to human health in the fruits. Scientists have found that the rosehip fruit has 5-6 times more vitamins than blackcurrant berries. The pulp of dry fruits contains essential oils, a lot of essential oils in flower petals. Most of all citric acid and vitamin C in ripe fresh fruits. Therefore, they should be collected only fully ripe, but still firm. Harvested fruits after frost are unsuitable for storage, they must be processed immediately. Fresh fruits are stored for quite a long time in plastic bags, in tightly closed glass vessels to prevent the entry of atmospheric oxygen, which destroys vitamins. Fruits are dried in dry ventilated rooms, in attics, in the shade. It is allowed to finish drying in an oven or oven, but the temperature should not exceed 60-80 °C. Well-dried fruits should be dry, but not crumble when crushed. Dry fruits are best preserved in a tightly sealed container. From the pulp of fresh fruits, concentrated juice can be obtained by pressing the crushed mass in juice cookers. Well-washed fruits are cut, cleaned of seeds and hairs, and then used for cooking marshmallows, jams, preserves. The addition of other fruits is acceptable. Jam can also be prepared cold. To do this, fresh fruits are slightly blanched, cut, freed from seeds and hairs and crushed in a meat grinder. The resulting mass is mixed with sugar. Three parts of sugar are taken for two parts of the pulp. The mixture is tightly placed in a glass dish and corked, keeping in a cool and necessarily dark place. Kissels and compotes are prepared from fresh fruits.
Vitamin drink is prepared as follows. Well-washed fruits are blanched for 6-10 minutes in hot water, then ground through a sieve or crushed in a meat grinder. The pulp is poured with boiling water at the rate of one teaspoon of pulp per glass of boiling water and infused for 8-10 hours. The infusion is filtered through a double layer of gauze, a little sugar is added, and the drink is ready. You can store the infusion for 5 to 10 days, but only in a cold and dark place. No more than two glasses of the drink are consumed per day, children are given no more than one glass. From wild rose seeds in Siberia and Altai, a coffee surrogate is prepared, which has a pleasant smell with vanilla aroma. To flavor natural coffee, a little roasted and ground rosehip seeds are added to it. Highly aromatic original wines are obtained from rose hips and rose petals, jams are made, liqueurs and liqueurs are made. The therapeutic and dietary value of rose hips is enormous.

Rose hip. The value of the plant, the procurement of raw materials, the use in traditional medicine and cooking
Rosehip is so remarkable that you cannot confuse it with another shrub: prickly, like a hedgehog, and beautiful, like a rose. However, the wild rose is a rose, only a wild one. It was he who "gave" people his youngest daughter, who became the queen of flowers. His older children, with a prickly character and all appearance in the parent, are the same dog roses. There are many of them in different regions, growing wild and bred in gardens. At the beginning of summer, they are amicably decorated with large roses of flowers, and in the first autumn they preen themselves with red beads of berries. Red, orange, yellow, all the colors of carnelian are inherent in these ripe fruits. But is rosehip famous only for its beauty? It has long been called a cure for forty diseases. Shipshina - rose hips - remains in honor of modern physicians, as she once was in honor of folk healers. The need for medicinal raw materials is so great that wild rose fruits are harvested everywhere. High-vitamin rose hips are especially valued. After all, they contain 10 times more vitamin C than the famous blackcurrant, and 100 times more than apples! Two fruits of a wild rose will provide a person with this vitamin of health and vigor for the whole day. But it is so generous only on time and correctly assembled wild rose. And of course, properly dried. Rose hips are harvested in autumn, before frost. Frozen spikeshina loses its healing properties when thawed, such a product is suitable only for juices and syrup. Pluck the fruits in tight gloves or canvas mittens; with bare hands, one cannot approach the fanged bush. Put orange-red beads in baskets, birch bark boxes and buckets. The fruits must not be crushed, the sepals sticking out from the front must not be cut off from them. Without sepals, the collection quickly becomes moldy and deteriorates. It is also important to put the collected raw materials into drying without delay. For drying, the shipshina is laid out on sieves and placed in a heated oven. The air temperature in it should be 80-90 degrees. They “measure” it with a piece of paper: if the piece of paper does not smolder and does not turn yellow in the oven, then you can start drying the fruit. For the first hour or two, the pipe in the oven is not closed, then it is closed halfway, by the end of drying, the pipe is completely closed. Rosehips are also dried in the sun. Properly dried fruits do not grind into powder, they just break apart in the fingers. Dried spikes are cleaned of sepals. In medicinal species of wild rose, where the sepal was, a round hole is exposed. In non-medicinal, canine, rose hips, the fruit is sealed with a pentagonal disc. The color of dried fruits is orange-red or brownish. Their walls are fragile, wrinkled, lined with bristles from the inside. Normally dried spishina contains up to five percent of vitamin C, carotene, sugars, tannins, pectins, citric acid and potassium salts. Of the trace elements, there is iron, manganese, phosphorus, calcium and magnesium. Vitamin preparations are prepared from rose hips - water tinctures, syrups, powders and tablets. Fresh fruits are used to enrich various culinary and confectionery products with vitamins. Rosehip juice is very useful, which lasts for several days. Vitamin tea is prepared from a mixture of rose hips with black currants or rowan berries. The mixture is poured with boiling water and infused for about an hour. Then the infusion is filtered through gauze, sweetened with sugar. Rosehip infusions and teas strengthen the body against infections and the harmful effects of a polluted environment. Vitamins restore strength to an exhausted body, treat anemia and atherosclerosis. Rosehip syrup is prepared like this. The washed fruits are poured with hot water, after which the pan is put on fire; boil for 20 minutes, stirring the contents. Then the mass is squeezed out through 2-3 layers of gauze, and the resulting juice is left to stand for a day. The transparent layer of juice is drained, flavored with sugar in a ratio of 1:1,5 and boiled until a thick syrup is obtained. Clean bottles are filled with hot syrup, corked and placed in the basement or cellar. To prepare rosehip jelly, dried fruits are first crushed in a mortar and poured into boiling water as a powder. Boil for 20 minutes, then filter the broth through three layers of gauze so that the hairs do not penetrate, add the required amount of boiling water, sugar and a little vinegar. The mixture is heated to a boil, after which starch diluted in cold water is added to it. Such jelly is a delicious dietary dish. Rosehip petals are also edible. They make a tender jam, unlike any other. Petals are also used to flavor wines, liqueurs and tea.
Dog rose hips have long been used as a choleretic agent. Traditional medicine treated them with jaundice and stones in the bile ducts, as well as with diseases of the kidneys and urinary tract. Decoctions were treated for colds. The leaves were also found to be healing: an aqueous infusion on them supposedly helps with gastrointestinal disorders, and a syrup from the leaves with honey relieves ulcers in the oral cavity. Leaves applied to the skin help with eczema. Scientific medicine recognizes the medicinal properties of the dog rose. Its liquid extract is prescribed to treat inflamed liver and gallbladder. Dog rose hips grow mainly in the steppe regions, but also come across in a more northern strip. Many types of rose hips are real vitamin factories. One of the most common high-vitamin types of wild rose is cinnamon rose. This is a low shrub, approximately the height of a person. Its branches are shiny, red-brown. Flowering shoots are equipped with paired thorns, bent down. Thorns extend from the base of the leaves. On leafy shoots, the thorns are thinner. Young branches are always studded with thicker thorns than old ones, but on the latter they are much larger. The flowers of the cinnamon rosehip are solitary, large and very attractive: on the green velvet of the foliage, dark red roses burn with marks of numerous stamens and pistils. The fruits are round or somewhat elongated, their shell is orange-red. Each such capsule is as if filled with vitamins. Under the juicy, sweet and sour shell, there are many yellowish nuts, these are rosehip seeds. The fruits do not fall off the bushes until the serious arrival of winter. Rose cinnamon settles on river floodplains, water meadows, bushy places and forest edges, as well as clearings and ravines. Extensive thickets of this vitamin champion come across in the Volga and Ural regions. Distributed in the forest and forest-steppe zone, in Siberia it reaches Baikal. In the backyard garden, cinnamon rosehip is a favorite plant. Even in the old days, the svoroborina, as the wild rose was then called, earned the respect and love of gardeners. Pleasing to the eye, good for the soul. Of undoubted value are capsules of vitamins of the needle-rose hips. The branches of this rose are brownish, dotted with thin straight thorns. Fruits with the terminal joint of the little finger. Another wild rose is the Dahurian rose. Its branches are black-purple or dark with red, the spikes are yellowish-gray, protruding, somewhat curved, arranged in pairs at the base of the branches and leaves. Rosehip blooms with dark pink flowers, gives fruits of various shapes - round, ovoid, oblong. The Daurian rose has firmly established itself in the south of Eastern Siberia and the Far East. The Begger rose has medicinal properties, with bluish branches and large curved thorns. The flowers are white as snow, and they are located not singly, but in panicles. The fruits are small, round, their color may be red or blackish. The sepal from the top of the fruit flies around even before the egg capsules are removed. Rosehip Begger grows in the mountains of the Tien Shan, Pamir-Altai and Dzungarian Altai. These places are inaccessible, so only a small part of the harvest goes to pickers of thorns. In the same mountainous places, the Fedchenko rose is also a huge shrub with large, straight thorns. He already has flowers the size of a teacup, but they are protected by glandular bristles that sweep around the pedicels: you can’t pick it, you can’t pry it with your fingers. The heroic wild rose has giant fruits - up to 5 cm long. By themselves they are oblong, at the top they are elongated into the neck. Sometimes they come across like balls, round. Rosa Fedchenko grows in Central Asia, the western Tien Shan and the Pamir-Altai. Less exotic wrinkled rose, although its growth is not small - two meters. But what is surprising is the thickness of the shoots, with a thick stick. The thorns are abundantly scattered on the branches. The nickname "wrinkled" rose was due to the leaves: they are wrinkled, rounded in shape. The flowers are red, rarely white and also large, the size of a palm. The fruits of the wrinkled wild rose are plump, fleshy, bright red. Distributed in the Far East, Sakhalin and Kamchatka. It is found a lot along the sea coast. Thanks to the fleshy fruits, this capsule of vitamins is introduced into the culture. Large-fruited species of wild rose are generally of interest for wide development. After all, a wild rose is naturally endowed with useful properties. Author: Strizhev A.N.
