Description
And because the breath of flowers is far sweeter in the air (whence it comes and goes, like the warbling of music) than in the hand, therefore nothing is more fit for that delight, than to know what be the flowers and plants that do best perfume the air.
~ Francis Bacon

The rose originated in Persia, and comes from one of the oldest known perennial shrubs. There are 10,000+ worldwide.
Roses are equated with romance, peace, and fulfillment; wearing one is believed to bring love. They bring good luck, and if planted in a garden, are purported to bring abundance - as well as bloom from May through to September. For potpourris, if picked in the morning as soon as the dew is dry, the dried roses will hold the scent longer.

Returning from a summer overseas, so delighted I was to find this rose still blooming marvelously the end of summertime; captured in natural light .. unedited; uncropped .. nature in all its splendour.
