PICTURES OF ROSES

Everybody loves roses, the queen of flowers,
and not for their beauty alone.
To roses there is more than just looks.

They are repeat bloomers. Their smell is divine. Their medicinal properties were known in China 3000 years ago. The old Romans showered rose petals where we throw confetti today. We use roses in salads and for teas; as an essential oil for perfumes and rose water as food ingredient. And, of course, the rose carries our emotions to the loved one or the departed.

This queen is a tough trooper. With excellent winter hardiness, or love for the sun, there is a rose for every clime, from the arctic to the tropics.
