sweet briar
Eglantine is a flower - a type of wild rose - not usually thought of as a food. I have seen rose petals crystallised, then used to decorate cakes. I don't know if that counts as food. Rose petals can be steeped in water to produce rose-water. This is an important flavouring for Turkish Delight, and also for the Indian dish Gulab Jamon.
Another name for the sweetbriar is eglantine.

Eglantine, also known as sweetbriar, typically grows in temperate regions in Europe and Asia. Its preferred habitat includes woodland edges, hedges, and open grasslands. The plant produces fragrant pink flowers and small red fruits called rose hips.
The eglantine, or wild rose (Rosa eglanteria), adapts to its environment through its hardy nature, allowing it to thrive in various soil types and conditions. Its thorny stems deter herbivores, while its fragrant flowers attract pollinators, ensuring reproduction. Additionally, the plant’s ability to grow in dense thickets provides shelter and protection for wildlife, contributing to its ecological resilience. Overall, these adaptations enable the eglantine to survive and thrive in diverse habitats.
