A symbol of love, romance and beauty, no other flower evokes the sentiment like the rose. Eros, the Greek god of love, his name an anagram of "rose," is credited with giving the world‘s first rose. The world’s most beloved flower, roses survived ancient volcanic eruptions, wars, and drought to remain the premier flower grown in gardens and used in bouquets. According to the Cut Flowers Growers Association, as of 2010, roses account for $6 billion in the worldwide flower market.
Color Significance
The range of colors found in roses represents different meanings. The traditional red rose is the ultimate symbol of love, and favorite flower for Valentine‘s Day. A white rose is a sign of purity. Joy best describes the pink rose, while passion is for an orange rose. Yellow is the color of friendship and a popular song, "The Yellow Rose of Texas." The blue rose symbolizes mystery and spirituality.
Ancient Roses
In 900 B.C., roses appeared throughout the known world from the Mediterranean to Asia. Alexander the Great studied botany and grew his own roses that he introduced in every country he conquered. The Greeks and Romans traded them as money. The Egyptian queen, Cleopatra, slept on a bed of roses, and garlands of roses made elaborate funeral wreaths for pharaohs. The first catalog of roses appeared in 300 B.C.
Oriental Roses
The rose revolution started in China with roses bred to bloom repeatedly. The roses were imported to England in 1730, then to America. In 1752, the popular new China rose, known for its hardy evergreen leaves, spread throughout Europe and Russia. The delicate yet durable tea rose, a favorite at tea parties, had mildew-resistant foliage. The China and tea roses laid the groundwork for many other types.
Renaissance Roses
French Empress Josephine elevated roses in style and stature during the 1800s by growing all known types in her garden. By 1814, she grew 250 species of roses, the world’s largest collection of any flower. Almost 5,000 rose varieties were grown in France in the 1830s. French growers exported China and tea roses to southern states prior to the Civil War.
Modern Roses
Rose hybrids made a major impact in the floral world. Breeding farms refined French methods and created the first climbing rose, the Crimson Rambler, in 1893. A hybrid rose that could survive cold weather was developed in Germany. In the 1960s, experiments with pigments created the first orange-red rose. By 1970, over 30,000 different types of roses were grown, according to Rex Wolfe in his book “All About Roses."
