Apart from the colour , the green points (5) around the circumferance are positioned differently, i.e. red rose of Lancaster a single point is at the top, on the white rose of Yorkshire the single point is at the bottom. this so that when the two roses came together to form the Tuder rose there were 10 equally spaced points around the circumferance Answer The Red Rose of Lancaster is Rosa Gallica. The White Rose of York is Rosa alba.
