Roses are one of natures most beautiful and splendid gifts.
Roses come in a variety of colors and
scents, from deep, deep red to the brightest yellow. The many
pedals on roses offer a texture and fullness to roses that far
outshine any other flowers. Black roses, red roses and white roses
have all been used in historical writings. Even Sherlock Holmes
paused from his busy work while solving the case of "The
Naval Treaty" and said, "All other things …are really
necessary for our existence…But this rose is an extra. Its smell
and its color are an embellishment of life, not a condition of it.
It is only goodness which gives extras, and so I say again that we
have much to hope from the flowers.
It’s interesting that something as beautiful as roses are
also equipped with sharp thorns. An interesting play on our
concept of taking the good with the bad from nature. The most
esteemed of all cultivated plants, are the true roses. Rosa occurs
indigenously in the north temperate zone and in tropical mountain
areas, usually as erect or climbing shrubs with five-petaled
fragrant flowers. The rose has been a favorite flower in many
lands since prehistoric times. It appears in the earliest art,
poetry, and tradition. It has been used in innumerable ways in
decoration. In ancient times it was used medically. But, for many
gardeners just being able to grow beautiful roses is reward
enough.
You can search all over the web to find some great resources to
help. Yellow roses, blue roses or climbing roses can all be found
on the internet. Take your time to look around and consider what
kind of roses you would like to have blooming in your garden.
