Rose Introduction
Roses belong to the Rosaceae family and are deciduous shrubs. They are shallow-rooted flowers that enjoy growing in the sun. The blooming period is from May to September. The flowers come in many colors, such as white, red, pink, and yellow.
Their flowers are fragrant, with some varieties being single-petaled and others being double-petaled. Roses are originally from the northern part of China and are cultivated nationwide, with the most extensive plantations in Shandong, Jiangsu, and Zhejiang.
Chinese Rose Introduction
Chinese roses belong to the Rosaceae family and are evergreen upright shrubs. Their stems are green, and the branches have sturdy, slightly hook-shaped thorns, with the main stem being gray-brown at the base. The leaves are long elliptical with sawtooth edges. The main characteristic of Chinese roses is that they bloom continuously.
