Description
The hip of Rosa arvensis, seen in Lower Austria
The plant can grow to be between 3 and 3.7 metres (9.8 and 12.1ft) tall. Its flowers are white, 4 to 5 centimetres (1.6 to 2.0in) across, and its fruits ('hips') are red. It blooms in the summer (July in England,[2] May–June in Bulgaria).[7]
Distribution
Rosa arvensis was first identified in England and has been subsequently observed elsewhere in Europe.[4][8] In England, it can be seen principally in hedges and thickets,[3] while in Bulgaria, it also forms part of the understory of deciduous forests.[7]
It is found in most of the British Isles (except Scotland), France and Belgium, the Pyrenees (at altitudes up to 1000 m) and in more scattered localities elsewhere in Spain, in the west and south of Germany, the foothills of the Alps (up to 1330 m in the Central and Eastern Alps, up to 1400 m in the Maritime Alps), in Italy, Western Hungary, in the Little Carpathians of Slovakia, the Carpathians of Romania, most of the Balkan Peninsula (in Bulgaria up to 1000 m).[9] It has been reported in isolated occurrences in North-western Africa, southern Anatolia and the Levant, but it is likely these are instead instances of R. phoenicia. In Caucasia it is present only as a cultivated plant.[10]
