How many things can you associate with — Rose? A song? A poem? Or somebody else’s name?

Roses grow in a variety of colours and each colour represents a special meaning when they are being given in different occasions.

Have you heard of a famous oldies called Rose, Rose I Love You by Frankie Laine? It sounds something like this…

“Rose, Rose I love you with an aching heart
What is your future, now we have to part?
Standing on the jetty as the steamer moves away,
Flower of Malaya, I cannot stay.”

And a famous poem

“Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
Sugar is sweet;
And so are you”

Well, as much as you have heard about her, let’s meet her in “person” because today, she bloomed in such a gorgeos way, you just can’t resist to take a snap of her. Her name is Rosa alba from the Rosaceae family. She is reddish pink and has a lot of petals. And we have got the two of them blooming beside each other today.

Now, let’s take a closer look at her.

The rain that showered the mother nature a while ago has left behind some traceable raindrops on the petals but fortunately this beautiful blooming view wasn’t taken away.

Here is another view of both the Rosa alba from the Rosaceae family.

Have a pleasant day!
