Roses

Roses are those small little wonderful miracles which do wonders of highest orders, which a million words can’t do. The flowers speak when the lips seal with emotions, which are so tough to put in words. The best of the gifts that one can give is roses, a bouquet or may be just a single bud of the flower that has not yet bloomed can unfurl the heart filled with emotions.

  

Rose can be said to be a synonym of love. The beauty of rose has always cast a spell on people which are strong enough to bind them in love bonds. Different colours of roses signify different feelings. A red rose has always been a sign of LOVE. The most romantic gift that two love birds can give is a red rose. Pink roses have always meant admiration and the yellow rose’s suit best to show the depth of a platonic love. White has been the choice of all the creative minds, showing peace, innocence and respect. And the best to show the passion which can drive one crazy is the orange colour. Roses have been the best choice of an artist who paints a thousand colours on his canvas to capture the beauty of all kinds, beauty of nature, beauty of women and beauty of minds.

The original name of rose (Aeolic wrodon) comes from the Persian name “vrda” which is “rhodon” in Greek. There are many species of roses, some are considered to be the wild species of roses. The records of different species of roses show that there are about 100 to 150 species, but the botanists claim that there are not as many as 150 species but it sums up around 100 species only.

There are two kinds of roses, the old roses which were discovered before 1867 and the modern roses which include Hybrid Teas, Floribundas and Grandifloras. The most lovable roses, the English roses, were created David Austin, an English rose hybridizer, in the year 1969. These roses are often called David Austin roses.

People are really fascinated about growing roses at home and make their home, heaven, where pretty flowers bloom and gives their lives new zing. But roses are that species of flower which is the most difficult to grow. They need high maintenance and proper regular care. Roses should be pruned just before the spring when the buds start appearing on the branches. The bushes and the dead branches should be cut in proper time; the shear used for cutting the braches should be sharpened. Roses need special care during the winters. They should be fed water often to keep them healthy, but watering should not be done directly and should be given very lightly.

Roses inspire the lover within everyone and this sheer love drives people crazy and they go about loving this flower by actually becoming the gardener, and growing roses at home or buying them from any florists shop. The florists go high in demand during special occasions like Christmas, Yew Year but also in off-season their business never witnesses any downfall. People buy it in every season and every occasion. This has become a very high-profile industry now, so big that there are many companies’ which has the business of selling bouquets of different styles specially made for special occasions on the net. People can now send bouquets of roses from one country to another, and these companies also make it possible of delivering the bouquets on the same date.
