rose hips

Want to give your autumn creations, such as autumn arrangements, autumn wreaths and autumn bouquets, that little bit extra? Then consider the charismatic rose hip. Rose hips are the fruits of the lovely rose bushes. Once the rose season is over, the sturdy rose hips come into their own. These robust branches are a characteristic example of the beautiful aspects of autumn. With their vibrant red hues, you can give your customers a touch of wilderness and passion.

No two customers are the same, which means that their wishes also vary. At Greenflor, you can choose from different types of rose hips to cater to these varying preferences. Below, you can read more about the different types of rose hips that you can purchase in the Greenflor webshop.

shrub rose hips

The way in which Greenflor's various rose hips are grown can be divided into two variants: growing on a bush or along a wire. The first variant, rose hips that grow on a bush, is similar to how rose hips grow in the wild. First, the roses on the rose bush bloom, and when they have finished flowering, the rose hips develop from the flower buds. The growers that Greenflor works with prune the bushes by hand. This allows the bush to flourish and produce the most beautiful rosehip branches when the lovely roses slowly disappear.

With climbing rose hips, the rose plant grows upwards using several taut wires. These so-called guide wires serve as an aid for the plant to “climb upwards”. Once at height, the roses and rose hips can enjoy the sunshine. This allows them to ripen extra well, for an even more beautiful appearance.

corallo rose hips

One of the types of rose hips available from Greenflor is the Corallo. This rose hip is recognisable by its characteristic dark red colour, oval shape and slightly protruding black “crown”. The Corallo rosehip can also be recognised by its branches, which are covered with berries on one side only. This one-sided coverage of berries is precisely what makes these beautiful autumn branches so special. With its distinctive appearance, the Corallo rosehip is a true autumn fruit. The rosehip is therefore perfect for various autumn arrangements, including autumn decorations, autumn bouquets and autumn wreaths.
