Is rosehip suitable for consumption, for example, for tea or jam?

Definitely! Provided you haven't used pesticides. Rose hips have a very high Vitamin C content (up to 3000 mg/100g). For comparison: Lemon has 60 mg/100g. Rosa rugosa is in the range of 400-1000 mg/100g. Higher contents you can find in e.g. in Rosa pendulina, R. dumalis, E. majalis or R. tomentosa.
