The Rose

Almost every woman was given a red rose at least once in her lifetime. Probably at the first date or on Valentine’s Day. A single stem or a bouquet of roses can melt anyone’s heart, right? Roses are the unquestionable symbols of love and passion in our culture.

Roses were always the symbol of love, passion, friendship or purity – depending on their color. Indeed, red rose meant deep love that time, too. If someone wanted to melt his love’s heart, then he chose a bouquet of red roses – even in the 19th century.

A rose is a woody perennial flowering plant of the genus Rosa, in the family Rosaceae, or the flower it bears. There are over three hundred species and thousands of cultivars.
