The origin of roses




In mythology several myths about the creation of roses are credited,
one of them is that the goddess Aphrodite, while born of the foam of the sea, would have wanted to create something as beautiful as her.
From her bosom came a white rose that she would use from that moment as an ornament,
 one day Dionysus approached her and poured a few drops of her wine into the rose, and since then she acquired her characteristic rosy hue.
