Roses are some of the most famous and loved flowers in the whole world! People have been growing roses for thousands of years, and there are over 20,000 different kinds. They have many layers of soft, silky petals and come in beautiful colors like red, pink, white, yellow, and even orange.
Red roses are a special way to tell someone you love them, and that is why you see so many of them on Valentine’s Day. Some roses are tiny enough to fit in your hand, while others can climb up walls and grow taller than a house! Wild roses have only five petals, but garden roses have been grown to have dozens of petals packed together.
Roses grow in gardens
all around the world. Most roses have a wonderful sweet smell that people use to make perfume, soap, and even candy. Rose bushes have sharp thorns on their stems that help protect the plant from animals that might want to eat it.
