Things to Do
You can grow them, of course, but what else?
- Buy a beautiful bunch of roses and give it to someone you love.
- Most little girls have made "perfume" from rose petals steeped in water. You can also press them and tuse them to create pictures, greetings cards and bookmarks.
- Make rose perfume from crushed rose petals or rose pot pourri.
- Luxuriate in a rosewater bath.
- Make Turkish Delight (rosewater is one of the ingredients).
- Breed roses - and join the Royal National Rose Society
