I love all flowers, but especially roses. Growing up, our garden was filled with them - all different types and colors.
I love the rose! Its considered a woody perennial plant of the Rosa genus
Interesting. My Mom used to cut our roses back in the Fall and they'd start pushing out again in Spring. Do you know where the rose originated?
They are native to Asia but there are some that came from europe, north america, and africa.
Asia, hmm. I guess I always associated them with England - English country garden sort of stuff. Do you grow roses?
no I dont grow them personally. They vary in shape and size and they can range in colors from yellow to red.
My husband used to grow roses in our old home. Our favorite was called the Ausmum rose. It was so beautiful. Can't wait to get a garden again!
from Oscan, from Greek ρόδον "rhódon" (Aeolic βρόδον "wródon"), itself borrowed from Old Persian "wrd-" ("wurdi"), related to Avestan "varəδa", Sogdian "ward", Parthian "wâr".
Botany.
The leaves are borne alternately on the stem. In most species they are long, pinnate, with (3–) 5–9 (–13) leaflets and basal stipules; the leaflets usually have a serrated margin, and often a few small prickles on
very cramped. In the yard my mother, my father, and I each had a garden. My mother's taste inclined to roses and spring flowers, and I had ordinary things like Zinnias and bluets, but the glory of our yard was my father's dahlias. They bloomed in wonderful, brilliant colors, and the blossoms were as large as dinner plates. I remember the care with which he sorted the bulbs and stored them in the basement over the winter"""."
