The Rose is most popularly known as the flower of love,

The flowers of most species have five petals, with the exception of Rosa sericea, which usually has only four. Each petal is divided into two distinct lobes and is usually white or pink, though in a few species yellow or red. Beneath the petals are five sepals (or in the case of some Rosa sericea, four). These may be long enough to be visible when viewed from above and appear as green points alternating with the rounded petals. There are multiple superior ovaries that develop into achenes.^[4] Roses are insect-pollinated in nature.

  Perfume is usually made from oil, and roses can be a source of the oil that is needed. This is the reason that some manufacturers use roses for their perfumes. The oil is sometimes called “attar of roses.” Obtaining the oil requires the crushing of rose petals. The crushed petals are then put through a steam distilling process.

  The oil is not the only product derived, as you can also get rose water. People use rose water for religious practices, cosmetics, and cooking.

  Rose oil can be yellow-grey or pale yellow. It takes approximately two thousand roses to yield one gram of oil.

  Rose petals are edible and can be collected at any time for this purpose. However, rose petals that are to be used in recipes or to be dried require a bit of planning. The perfect time to collect rose petals is mid-morning, on a dry day when the dew has evaporated and there’s been no rain for at least the past two days. Bring your fingers over an opened rose flower and tug gently on all the petals at once.

  Rose tea makes an excellent emmenagogue (a substance that stimulates  or increases menstrual flow.  )to help move blood and quell cramps during menstruation. Rose tea can also help to curb diarrhea since roses are astringent (wild rose being especially so).

  To help relieve menstrual cramps or diarrhea, drink 2–3 cups per day.
