Rose Buds Magnet

Roses (genus Rosa) is a group of roughly 100 species of woody perennial flowering plants. Most species are native to Asia, and the long cultural history of the rose has led to it being used often as a symbol. They symbolised the Houses of York and Lancaster in a conflict known as the Wars of the Roses. Rose hips, water and syrup are often used in culinary applications, and the rose has long represented love, both platonic and romantic (depending on colour and culture).
