I would like to hear if anyone has had luck starting roses from rose hips. I have been trying to read what I can find on the internet.

I was so excited about my winter sowing plants last year and this year someone gave me rose hips from a beautiful rose bush.. I know, I know , they won't come true from seed, but it should be fun to find out.

If you have been successful with winter sowing roses , I would like to know what containers you used, what zone you are in, the variety of rose, and anything else you would like to add.

If I am winter sowing do I need to stratify in the refrigerator first? Or can I just take the seeds out of the hip and plant it directly in my container in Feb?
