Very nice. Rosa Rugosa. They grow wild at some beaches. I had some by the barn. White and pink. They make almost impenetrable hedges.

I was amazed how they grew on the coast of Maine. So hardy and versatile
@btroje, it seems they actually prefer the rougher weather conditions.
@walklightly You can find Rugosa roses thriving along the beaches of Norway and Denmark.

The rosehips are filled with seeds. We used to pop them open, them put them doown the back of our friends' shirts. My mother made rosehip jelly whe there were a lot of them.

This is what roses originally looked like, (as far as science can tell).
Presumably a mutation happened, in which the rose had multi layers of petals, of course some human noticed and kept that trait going. (And further experimentation created further varieties)
@njoy_life_2 thanks
