Im not really sure about rose, it might be rose hips..maybe someone else will know.

Also, just because something is listed as "safe" doesnt mean its really all that good for them.

Ive found that sticking with your pellets, hay, a few greens toalternate between (like romaine lettuce, parsey, cilantro) andsomething every once in a while for a treat (carrot, apple, banana)will be enough variety for your bunny.
