Roses are such a unique flower offering incredibly varied blooms from one plant to another. Amazingly, the quantity of petals that each variety of rose brings differs. From blooms with 4 or 5 petals open to reveal colourful stamens in the centre, to flowers packed with layers of petals, we're sure you will find shapes and colours you will fall in love with.
