]The rose has always been valued for its beauty and has a long history of symbolism.
The ancient Greeks and Romans identified the rose with their goddesses of love referred to as Aphrodite and Venus.
In Rome a wild rose would be placed on the door of a room where secret or confidential matters were discussed.
The phrase sub rosa, or "under the rose", means to keep a secret — derived from this ancient Roman practice.
Early Christians identified the five petals of the rose with the five wounds of Christ. Despite this interpretation, their leaders were hesitant to adopt it because of its association with Roman excesses and pagan ritual.
The Red Rose was eventually adopted as a symbol of the blood of the Christian martyrs. Roses also later came to be associated with the Virgin Mary.
Rose culture came into its own in Europe in the 1800s with the introduction of perpetual blooming roses from China.
There are currently thousands of varieties of roses developed for bloom shape, size, fragrance and even for lack of prickles.
