A rose is a woody perennial of the genus Rosa, within the family
Rosaceae. Most rose species are native to Asia, a few to North
America, to Europe and northwest Africa. Ancient history gives
abundant proof of the esteem in which the Queen of Flowers was
held. The raising of varieties from seed was well known and studied
with deep interest from the earliest ages of horticulture. India,
Persia, Turkey, Egypt and Spain all played a part in the ancient
history of the rose. Roses medicinal properties have been
recognised throughout the ages. Rosewater and Attar of Roses are
valued commodities, as are some old varieties of roses that still
exist today. There are approximately 13,000 identifiable varieties
of roses in the classes of roses presented in this Guide.
