What is Rosehip?

Rosehip, also called rose haw or rose hep, is the fruit of wild rose plants, mainly from the Rosa canina and Rosa rugosa types. It is bright red or orange and tastes a bit like cranberries, which makes it popular for its fruity and tangy flavor. This fruit is used in cooking and health products. You can find it in herbal teas, jams, supplements, and natural skincare items. It is often combined with chamomile, hibiscus, or nettle because of its tart taste and high vitamin content.

Types, Varieties & Forms

Rosehip products come in different forms, each meeting different market needs.

• Whole rosehips: Often used for infusions or further processing.
• Crushed or cut & sifted: Ideal for teabags and infusion applications.
• Powder: Used in capsules, tablets, and functional food powders.
• Extract-grade powder or granules: Standardized for use in joint health or beauty formulations.

Harvest Season

Rosehip is usually picked between September and November, after the hips have ripened following the first frost. The main countries that produce rosehip are Chile, Bulgaria, Turkey, Poland, and Romania. Prices vary based on type of rosehip, drying method, processing (with or without seeds), microbial quality, and certifications. Higher prices are often linked to seedless cuts, fine powders, and small batches for supplements, especially when testing for vitamin C or heavy metals is needed.

Producing Countries

Rosehip grows well in temperate climates. The main producers are Chile, Bulgaria, Turkey, and China. Chile is the top producer of large amounts of rosehip pulp. Bulgaria and Turkey are known for high-quality rosehip oil and also provide dried and powdered rosehips. China is growing its market with reasonably priced materials for different industries and wellness products.

The climate and soil in these areas influence the taste, vitamin content, and oil yield of rosehip. This helps buyers select rosehip that fits their brand's needs.
