Mother Nature has been perfecting roses for 35 million years. People have been breeding roses for just over five thousand years. The ancient Greeks, who revered beauty, composed many myths about this royal flower and its origin. And the ancient Persians believed that a rose is a gift from Allah. Each nation tried to immortalize Her Majesty Rose in her tales and legends.
Varieties of green "queens"
Rarely can we see such original natural contradictions as green roses. This miracle was the result of the work of breeders. They are rarely monochromatic, and the effect they produce is further enhanced. Truly green roses are the Vilidiflora variety, which originates from the ancient China rose Old Blush. Green rose petals are nothing more than overgrown perianth leaves. As the bud blossoms, bronze-raspberry dots appear on these petals. Inflorescences of the remaining roses of this color scheme are endowed only with shades of green. For example, the tea hybrid tea “Green Planet” has a creamy white flower with a greenish tint.
Unique and amazing are green roses, the photos of which are as beautiful as the flowers themselves, which change their color as they grow. Sort of plant chameleons. Petals of “Greensleeves” flowers, when blooming from pinkish-cream, turn into light green. And the golden red rose “Pur Caprice” becomes greenish with age. The pale pink buds of the miniature rose “Green Diamond” bloom into light green flowers.
Growing a green miracle
The methods of growing green roses are monopolized, and it is almost impossible to find them. Therefore, a simple breeding of this unique flower in the garden or in the country will not work. Green roses are self-cleaning. They look good in the garden, where they can compare with a diamond, go well with the variegated representatives of the flora.
Expression of feelings
Florists all over the world welcomed green roses hospitably. They look great with yellow colors. Bouquets and compositions from them are able to cheer up, inspire confidence, and optimize. Green roses will be a wonderful gift for any public celebration. According to knowledgeable people, the color of green means stability and balance. A cheerful bouquet of roses with green petals can be appreciated by a cheerful, successful and prosperous person with a high sense of their own “Ego”.
Back in the days of strict Victorian civilization, lovers and friends expressed their emotions through roses. In the modern world, this original way of expressing feelings remains popular, and it is constantly being improved due to the expansion of the color shades of the “queen” of flowers. Green roses are delightful and very beautiful. These flowers are a symbol of calm, abundance, generosity and fertility. They will not express beautiful love, but colorfully talk about jealousy. Admire the “queen” of flowers with unique green petals yourself, give to relatives and friends, decorate holidays and celebrations. She deserves it!
