The fragrance of the rose too is mainly placed in the blossom. Each fragrance rose has its own body odour, so to speak, which is not merely fleeting but also dependent on climatic characteristic and relative humidity, the time of the day and the soil. The fragrance is primarily placed in the corolla, from where it flows from limited glands on the upper site of the petals. No wonder, therefore, that densely filled blossom have a stronger fragrance than single or that thick petals have a more intense fragrance than wafer-thin. What is more, red and pink roses tend to have the typical rose fragrance, while the fragrance of white and yellow varieties can often resemble that of irises, violets or lemons, and that of orange roses can be like clover or fruit. Yet even the typical rose fragrance has its varieties and its preferences: int the East citizen tent to favour the heavy scent of the damask rose, whereas in Grasse, the perfume capital of southern France, citizen prefer the sweet, delicate smell of Centifolia and the Apothecary's rose.
'No rose without thorns'
Fragrance
Delhi flowers delivery - Although fully well known, in botanical terms this old saying is wrong twice over. First, roses don;t have thorns at all, they have spines. Whatever who has removed the spines from a young shoot knows that they are growths that sit on the covering of the shoot and can be removed relatively easy. Real thorns, on the other hand, such as those in a cactus, are part of the core tissue of the plant and are inseparable from it. And the old sating that all roses have spines is also wrong: there are several species that are virtually or entirely spine-free. What is more, the spines on the roses that do have them tend to reflect the individuality of each variety: there are hooked spines, level spines, needle-thin spines and broad, flat spines - not to mention both hairy and bristly ones.
