Rubus rosifolius, (sometimes spelled Rubus rosaefolius), also known as roseleaf bramble, Mauritius raspberry, thimbleberry, Vanuatu raspberry and bramble of the Cape[3] is a prickly subshrub native to rainforest and tall open forest of the Himalayas, East Asia, and eastern Australia.

[citation needed] Rose-leaf bramble leaves are compound with toothed margins, with glandular-hairs on both sides of leaflets.

Leaves stay green and fruits ripen in early autumn in Eastern Australia.

The fruit is sweet and pleasant flavoured when grown with good soil moisture.

[9] Rubus rosifolius is an introduced environmental weed in the Hawaiian Islands, Puerto Rico and French Polynesia, and extreme caution should be adopted when considering introducing this plant into regions where it is not already native.
