The aggregate fruit of the rose is a berry-like structure called a rose hip. Rose species that produce open-faced flowers are attractive to pollinating bees and other insects, thus more apt to produce hips. Many of the domestic cultivators have such tight petals that they do not provide access for pollination.
The hips of most species are red, but a few have dark purple to black hips. Rose hips of some species are very rich in vitamin C, among the richest sources of any plant.
