Rose Classification
Although there is no one set of "official" classification system
of roses, there are many different popular rose classification
schemes that are employed throughout the world. The Most Popular
of the systems in use has been proposed by The American Rose
Society in cooperation with the World Federation of Roses.
Although this classification system is not the only one in use,
a large majority of internationally established societies have
adopted this scheme for classifying roses.
According to the American Rose Society, there are three main
groupings of roses: the Species; Old Garden Roses; and Modern
Roses. Species Roses, the origin of every other rose class, are
commonly referred to as "wild roses." These "wild roses" are
easy to identify, as they normally have five petals, are
once-blooming, and are generally thorny shrubs or climbers.
Several popular Species Roses include: Cherokee Roses, Dog
Roses, Gallic Roses, French Roses, and Redleaf Roses. Species
Roses can be found throughout the Northern Hemisphere, as they
flourish in temperate climates.
Unlike Species Roses, which existed millions of years before man
walked the earth, Old Garden Roses are identified as a major
class of roses recognized before 1867.
Most Old Garden Roses bloom once per season, usually at the
arrival of summer. Old Garden Roses occur in a variety of shrub
and vine sizes. Although colors vary, Old Garden Roses are
typically white or pastel in color. These "antique roses" are
generally preferred for lawns and home gardening because they
are easy to care for. Several groupings of roses are classified
as Old Garden Roses including: China, Tea, Moss, Damask,
Bourbon, Hybrid Perpetual and Noisette roses. Many "antique
roses" have a strong sweet scent, which makes them very
desirable.
Old Garden Roses are the predecessors of Modern Roses. Any rose
which has been identified post 1867 is considered a Modern Rose.
This group of roses are very popular. The Modern Rose is the
result of cross breeding the hybrid tea with the polyanthus. The
colors of a Modern Rose are lovely, rich and vibrant. Most of
the roses found in this class flower repeatedly when cared for
properly. Perhaps that is why horticulturists find this class so
attractive. The most popular roses found in the class of Modern
Roses are the hybrid tea, floribunda, and grandiflora. Although
Modern Roses are adored by florists and gardeners, they do not
adapt well to colder environments.
After a rose has been classified according to the three main
groupings, a rose can then be further classified by color,
scent, growth habit, ancestry, date of introduction, blooming
characteristics and size. It is very difficult for
horticulturists to classify every rose, especially the hybrid
roses which often seem like a grouping of their own. While there
has been much debate on classifying roses, the American Rose
Society appears to have the most functional system for these
stages of classification. Perhaps this is why the American Rose
Society's classification system has been adopted by so many
rosarians the world over

A Guide To Buying Ceiling Roses For Your Home
Ceiling roses are ornamentations traditionally made of plaster that are used to decorate the area surrounding a central ceiling light. They were standard fashion items throughout the Victorian and Edwardian eras, particularly among the upper classes where they were often used to complement a chandelier in a room with a high ceiling. Today, ceiling roses are made from a variety of materials including polymer-based products. This makes them much lighter than traditional plaster ceiling roses and therefore easier to install. Making ceiling roses from modern materials also gives a higher level of definition for those ceiling roses that are ornately decorated. Ceiling roses offer a focal point to a room and can be used to complement its contents. However, before you buy one there are a few things that you ought to consider that might influence your choice.
Firstly, you should consider the question - why you want to install a ceiling rose? Is it for entirely aesthetic reasons or is there a practical factor involved? Aesthetically, ceiling roses can add character to a room and help recapture the ‘period feel’ that a building can have. They may be used to accentuate the beauty of a chandelier and to highlight the lines of light it throws out. Alternatively, it may just be used to cover cracks in the ceiling! Ideally, you should install your rose in the centre of the ceiling and this will have some bearing on your choice as in the case of ceiling roses, size really does matter.
Initially, there is the size of the ceiling to take into account. If the rose is too large, it will simply dominate the room and serve to make it feel more ‘closed in’, rather than acting as a centrepiece. On the other hand if it is too small it will be a pointless exercise and the rose will become ‘lost’ in the expanse of ceiling. There is also the height of the ceiling to consider. A high ceiling will cheerfully show off a larger ceiling rose, whereas on a lower ceiling it will tend to dominate the room. The room’s height may also affect the level of decoration you wish your ceiling rose to have. The higher the ceiling, the bigger and bolder the design you can expect to accommodate. The lower the ceiling, the finer the detail you can sport, although in modern houses it is generally better to opt for something plain as installing an ornate rose can often be a case of ‘over-egging the pudding’.
There is also the question of existing decoration. Unless the room is being entirely redecorated, you may have to choose something that is sympathetic to its existing style. If you have intricately-patterned wallpaper you might want to minimise the amount of embellishment on your rose so that the overall design of the room does not become too ‘fussy’. If there are existing cornices and coving then it is far better to select a design that blends in than one that will confuse the focus of the room. Detail is also a concern should you be planning to adorn the area surrounding a chandelier; the more ornate your chandelier is, the less your ceiling rose should be. In these instances ceiling roses are there to offset the lighting, not the other way round.
