I'm confused. Are rosehips the seed pod from any rose variety or is rosehip it's own variety?

Thankyou for being there and for your video, I have been searching around to find the use of plants to help prevent ants, mice and rats as it stated on the internet that lavender scent is not what they like, would you know anything about this and to which has the most pungent scent please also that which I could grow to cook with. I have also been told that the scent can cause some prone to fits to trigger fits. Are there any that grow better inside of containers to those that grow better outside of same, and is there any insects other than bees and wasps that are attracted to Lavender also if I were to consider to grow in containers is there better sized type to consider, please. What is the best fertilizer and soil type for lavendar and best way to take cuttings and collect and keeping od seed please, thanking you in anticipation of your kind reply. Best wishes sent for a safe and happy life, Maureen

Thank you so much, it is so therapeutic to watch your calming manner of creating wonderful products. I tried pressing violets in a heavy book but I can never get the simetrical flower. The longest pettals tend to become even longer as the peduncle (bottom of the flower) moves the pettals away after it is pressed. Do you have an advice for that?
