Botanical Description
Rosa corymbifera, the corymb rose or thicket dogrose, is a deciduous shrub in the family Rosaceae closely related to the common dogrose (Rosa canina) and often treated as a member of that species aggregate. It is native to Europe, western Asia, and North Africa, occurring in hedgerows, woodland margins, scrub, and disturbed calcareous ground. The plant forms an arching multi-stemmed shrub 1.5-3 m tall, with stout green to reddish stems bearing stout strongly curved (falcate) thorns. The leaves are pinnate with usually five or seven leaflets, each ovate, 1.5-4 cm long, doubly serrate, and distinctively softly hairy or pubescent on the underside (the principal character separating it from R. canina, whose leaflets are glabrous beneath); the rachis and petiole are also finely glandular-hairy. The flowers are borne singly or in corymbs of 2-5, each 4-6 cm across, with five broad pale pink to almost white petals around a central tuft of yellow stamens; sepals are pinnatifid and reflex and fall before the fruit ripens. The hip is a fleshy ellipsoid to ovoid red drupe-like rosehip 1-2 cm long, ripening in autumn.
