Plant Roses this Fall for Your Health

Here’s my philosophy on landscaping.

If I’m going to have to tend it, I want to be able to eat it.

So, when we were designing our landscaping, I went for mostly edible or medicinal plants.

Want to do the same?

When you are planting rose bushes, opt for the old fashioned variety, like rosa rugosa and rosa canina, which produce rosehips.

If you live in a neighborhood with deer, watch this video to find out how to protect your rosehips from disappearing in the night. The deer treat them like candy!

Can rosehips benefit your health? YES!

Actually, there are at least 6 benefits I discuss.

P.S. This fall is the best time to plant rose bushes. So, head to your garden center this weekend and start planting. Next summer you’ll be excited for the fresh rosehip tea.

P.S.S. Here’s the rosehip recipe post I mentioned - https://www.cambridgenaturals.com/blog/a-wild-fall-fruit-rosehips
