Roses in Gold

A rose in gold is exactly what it means: a real rose that has been picked at the height of its beauty and put through a process whereby it has been preserved and then either dipped or trimmed in 24K gold. Rose in gold flowers are increasingly popular gifts for special occasions when wanting to express a romantic sentiment.

Roses are classed in three distinct categories: Old Garden Roses (OGR’s), Species Roses, and Modern Roses. OGR’s are those roses which were known before 1867 – the year the very first hybrid tea rose, La France, was introduced. Old Garden Roses that are of Mediterranean or European origins are flowers that bloom once on woody-shrubs. They have very fragrant, double-flowered blooms which are generally pink, white, and red in color. The foliage found on Old Garden Rose shrubs tends to be highly resistant to disease and typically will only bloom on plants that are two years of age. With the introduction from East Asia around 1800, of China and Tea roses, a new class of Old Garden Roses was  formed which meant that these particular flowers would go on to bloom with new growth. In addition, their blooms will usually repeat every spring right through to fall. Some of the Old Garden Roses include, Alba, Gallica, Damask, Centifolia, Moss, Portland, China, Tea, Bourbon, and Noisette, to name just a few.

Species roses (sometimes referred to as wild roses) are made up of natural species of roses along with some of their hybrids. Some of the wild roses commonly found growing in gardens are Rosa moschata, the Musk Rose, Lady Banks’ Rose, the Sweetbriar, and the Scots or Burnet Rose. Species roses were around long before man existed, some 33 million years ago. They are petalled blooms that grow on plants that can reach heights of more than 20 feet. Most of the species in this class of roses are listed by their Latin name, beginning with “Rosa.”

The way in which Modern Roses are classified can be confusing; in many roses found in the modern classification, there are Old Garden Roses in their ancestry. In addition, their flower form varies a great deal. So as to try and distinguish Modern Roses from the others, they are usually classed based on their growth and characteristic of their flowers. For example, “large flowered shrub,” “cluster flowered,” “rambler recurrent,” or “ground-cover non-recurrent.” The most popular of the Modern Roses include the Hybrid Tea, the Polyantha, the Pernetiana, the Floribunda, the Grandiflora, the Miniature, and the Climbing and Rambling.

Unlike the real thing, rose in gold flowers are not chosen based on what type of flower classification they fall into; choice is made based on the color of rose in gold you prefer (gold or a specific color such as red), in addition to whether you want blooms that are fully open or partially closed
