The marriage between the two houses of York and Lancaster was commemorated by the creation of the heraldically beautiful Tudor Rose - a double rose with a White rose in the centre of a Red rose.
The original heraldic Tudor Rose followed the traditional convention of the husband's insignia (half a Red Rose) on the dexter (left, as you look at it) and the wife's (half a White Rose) on the sinister (right, as you look at it). Heraldically, this is termed 'parted per pale'.
Another early way of depicting the union of the Houses of Lancaster and York was to quarter the respective roses with the husband's quartered Red Rose in the top left and bottom right (quarters I & IV) and the quartered White Rose in the top right and bottom left (quarters II & III).
The regally crowned Tudor Rose (a double rose, white on red) with stalk and leaves is now the historical Royal badge of England and uncrowned, is the Floral Emblem of England. It also appears in the heraldic badge of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland along with the Thistle and the Shamrock. The standard Tudor Rose (white on red) also appears in the compartment area of the armorial insignia of Scotland and Canada.
The red rose was a badge of the House of Lancaster and the white rose was a badge of the House of York. The combination of the two signifies the House of Tudor and was created when Henry VII of Lancaster married Elizabeth of York.
King Henry VII married Elizabeth of York, the daughter of the family he had fought against. This ensured a stable monarchy and an end to the Wars of the Roses.
The blending of the Red Rose of Lancaster and the White Rose of York has occurred in three forms. In each form the display followed the heraldic traditions of the time. First there was the Tudor Rose 'parted per pale' where half of the husband's insignia (the Red Rose) appeared on the left side of the shield and the half of the wife's insignia (the White Rose) appeared on the right side of the shield.
This was further refined by 'quartering' the roses and placing the Red Rose of Lancaster in the top left and bottom right quarters (I & IV) with the White Rose of York in the top right and bottom left quarters (II & III).
The final version was a 'double rose' composed of a White Rose within a Red Rose and this is what is to-day referred to as a Tudor Rose. The crowned Tudor Rose with a stalk and leaves is the Royal Badge of England and the uncrowned Tudor Rose with stalk and leaves is the designated Floral Emblem of England.
