Wild rose in bloom.

Briar is a perennial, wild-growing plant of the Rosaceae family. People call it a wild rose. Rosehip is not a tall bush from 1.5-2.5 m in height with arcuate hanging branches covered with strong sickle-shaped spikes. Young shoots are greenish-red with awl-like spines and bristles. The flowers are pink or belorozovye, with five loose petals, a rim in diameter up to 5 cm. Rosehip blooms in May and June. Berry-like fruits (up to 20 mm long), red-orange, of various shapes, with a lot of hairy seeds, ripen in September-October.
