Apothecary Rose

One of the oldest cultivated roses in existence, the Apothecary's Rose has been grown in Europe and the Middle East for over 2,000 years and was the principal source of rose petals for medieval herbalists and perfumers. Producing fragrant single to semi-double deep pink flowers each spring, it is native to the Caucasus and northern Iran. Its petals retain fragrance when dried, making it valuable for rosewater, attar, and potpourri production. The ancestor of many modern rose cultivars.
