ANCIENT LEGENDS OF THE RED ROSE


History dates red roses to many time periods, one of which is ancient Greece. During this time, Aphrodite, the Goddess of Love, was said to have discovered the death of her first love, Adonis. Greek mythology states that while running to her dying lover Aphrodite pricked herself on a white rose bush, and when her blood dropped upon the rose, the first red rose came to be.

Roman mythology states a similar story about Aphrodite's Roman counterpart — Venus. In this legend, Venus hastily ran to Adonis to warn him of a plot for his murder. While she dashed to deliver the dreadful news, Venus ran through a sharp rose thorn bush, cutting her feet and ankles. Everywhere blood was spilt, red roses bloomed.
