The red rose is a flower that loves love, romance, beauty, and respect. Once a long time ago, many people expressed their feelings by giving red roses. This flower is also popular on Valetine Day and Mother's Day.

You know, in ancient Greece and Rome, the red rose was an expensive and luxurious thing. They used to be available only to the rich and noble. Red roses are also an inspiration for painters and writers. While in religious rituals, red roses in ceremonies and also rituals of medication.

The interesting thing happened in the 15th century, there is a historical record of the so-called "War of the Roses" aka the Rose War. The Rose War is not as beautiful as its name. It was a civil war in England. The red rose symbolizes the Lancaster family being a white rose is the emblem of the York family. When Henry VII of the Lancaster family married Elizabeth from York, he described the roses of these two symbols as Tudor roses.

There is also ancient Greek mythology, which tells the story of Venus, the son of a god of romance (the god of desire, erotic love, charm and compassion) who was stung by a bat for accidentally shooting arrows at the rose garden. The verse shot causes the thorns to grow on the roses. When Venus walks into the rose garden, you are pierced by a Rose thorn, so the drops of blood make the red roses.
