Facts About Roses (Rose Flowers)
The birthplace of the cultivated Rose was probably Northern Persia
(Current IRAN), on the Caspian, or Faristan on the Gulf of Persia.
Historically, the oldest Rose fossils have been found in Colorado,
dating back to more than 35 million years ago.
Roses were considered the most sacred flowers in ancient Egypt and
were used as offerings for the Goddess Isis. Roses have also been
found in Egyptian tombs, where they were formed into funerary wreaths.
Confucius, 551 BC to 479 BC, reported that the Imperial Chinese
library had many books on Roses.
Ancient Sumerians of Mesopotamia (in the Tigris-Euphrates River
Valley) mentioned Roses in a cuneiform tablet (a system of writing)
written in approximately 2860 BC.
The English were already cultivating and hybridizing Roses in the 15th
Century when the English War of Roses took place. The winner of the
war, Tudor Henry VII, created the Rose of England (Tudor Rose) by
crossbreeding other Roses.
While no Black Rose yet exists, there are some of such a deep Red
color as to suggest Black.
Roses are omnipresent and grown over all parts of the globe.
The Netherlands is the world's leading exporter of Roses.
The Netherlands, with about 8000 hectares of land under Rose
cultivation, is the global leader in Rose cultivation. 54 per cent
(about 5000 hectares) of the cultivated land in Ecuador is under Rose
cultivation!! Zambia, a small nation, had 80 per cent of its
cultivated land under Roses.

I invited this photo to be added to the Nuckols_Nuckolls group because the white rose was the emblem of the House of York, which was supported by the Nuckolls Family in England, during the War of the Roses.
