A species of plants belonging to the genus Rosehip (Rosa) of the Rose family (Rosaceae). Deciduous shrub, reaching a height of 1.5 to 2.5 m. The shoots are thick, arched, less often almost straight. The bark is green, turning red on the sunny side.

The thorns are sparse, sickle-shaped, with a very short base, laterally compressed, almost straight on the main stems, abundant on flowering shoots, always hooked-curved.

The middle leaves of flowering shoots are 7-9 cm long, glabrous, dotted with short hairs only along the main vein, imparipinnate. At the base of the leaf there is a narrow, glandular-ciliated stipule along the edge, with sharp ears.

The flowers are odorless, solitary or collected in groups of three to five in an apical corymbose inflorescence, from white to bright pink, reaching a diameter of 5-8 cm. It blooms in May - June (July).

The fruits are smooth and glossy, orange-red in color, 15-26 mm long when ripe, broadly oval, less often almost spherical, devoid of glands, containing seeds inside - many hairy nuts. The fruits ripen in August.

You need fertile, sufficiently moist soil; this shrub will respond well to regular mineral and organic fertilizers; mulching will be useful.

USDA Hardiness Zone: 4 (-34°C to -29°C).
