Many visitors to Maine often wonder what flower or species of rose this is – it’s the Rugosa Rose and originated in Asia. The small, cherry tomato-like buds are Rose Hips, which are actually a fruit. The rose petals do not grow from these hips as many would suspect and often they appear on the plant simultaneously. They can be found all over Maine.
I'm a complete foodie, photo/food blogger and a cookbook author. I love the ocean, mountains, skiing, flip-flops, chocolate, crusty bread, wine, cheese, Foie Gras and travel.
Originally from the Washington DC suburbs, I appreciate the unspoiled nature and slower paced life in Maine. And my camera is always in tow.
