Roses

The history of garden roses began at the end of the 18th - beginning of the 19th centuries, when species of evergreen heat-loving roses with a peculiar aroma of petals, reminiscent of the smell of tea, were brought to Europe (first to England and then to France) from Southeast Asia. These roses had new decorative qualities: leathery shiny leaves, a special nobility of the shape of the buds and flowers, and a particularly important property - remontability, that is, the ability to bloom repeatedly for a long time. The efforts of breeders were aimed at creating new varieties that would combine the remontant nature of Asian roses and the frost resistance of European roses. For a long time this could not be achieved, and only at the beginning of the 19th century was it possible to overcome the uncrossability of these two groups of roses.

The first scientific description of roses was given by the ancient Greek naturalist, philosopher and botanist Theophrastus. He described wild and garden roses in sufficient detail and substantiated the methods of their cultivation and propagation.

The first mention of growing roses in Russia dates back to the beginning of the 16th century. It is assumed that they came to Russia through the Balkan Slavic lands. They became widespread only under Catherine II. By the end of the 19th century, roses began to be grown throughout the European part of Russia.
