Description
This photograph of a rose in black and white was taken while visiting the Chicago Botanic Garden in Glencoe, Illinois the past summer.
A rose is a woody perennial of the genus Rosa, within the family Rosaceae. There are over 100 species and thousands of cultivars. They form a group of plants that can be erect shrubs, climbing or trailing with stems that are often armed with sharp prickles. Flowers vary in size and shape and are usually large and showy, in colors ranging from white through yellows and reds. Most species are native to Asia, with smaller numbers native to Europe, North America, and northwest Africa. Species, cultivars and hybrids are all widely grown for their beauty and often are fragrant. Rose plants range in size from compact, miniature roses, to climbers that can reach seven meters in height. Different species hybridize easily, and this has been used in the development of the wide range of garden roses. This particular rose is showy, lightly scented yellow flowers bloom from late spring to mid fall. Spiral formed buds open to 5 inch, striking golden yellow blooms with pink edges. Red hip fruit display in late fall. Perfect for formal rose gardens, also makes an excellent cut flower for summer arrangements.
The name rose comes from French, itself from Latin rosa,
