The Complicated Rose


As I was intrigued by the color of this rose,
I was also in awe with its beauty and character.
Take a good look at the below photo.
If roses has attitude, this one is a spot on bad ass.
Just look at how complicated its inner petals are. 


Unlike from other roses I have seen which only has simple twirls to the core,
like this white rose below:


As I read more about orange roses,
I have learned that it is the wild child of the rose family (told you!).
Birthed from the combination of Red and Yellow Rose
which passion, perfection and beauty collide with joy,
bubbly and always in sunny disposition.
Result - the Enthusiastic Orange Rose.

A Short History of the Orange Rose

I am not a flower freak nor an anti but I appreciate flowers. I like them. I get elated whenever I get them. And speaking of, I received a Long Stemmed Orange Rose last night. Orange. Yes, orange. And it was seriously my first time to receive a rose on that color. I took a closer look at its petals trying to find uncolored spots or just anything that would appease my curiosity about its color origin. And, yeah it was an original Orange Rose.

 Orange Rose

Since it was my first time to receive an Orange Rose, my mind wandered on how roses with this color started. As a curios bug as I always am, I looked it up online and found out that it started in the 20th century when Rose cultivators wanted to create an Orange Rose. Basic knowledge, and taught in grade school, mixing red and yellow will give you an orange shade and that was what the cultivators did. They experimented and crossbred the red and yellow roses and voila, the birth of the Orange Rose.
