Probably from some fanciful similarity to a Rose, the flower. Pink rosaries are not unknown among the ladies. a somewhat analogous term Spiritual Bouquet- referred to a combination of devotional acts- usually receiving Communion and two other relilgious activities , one may have been the Rosary. The Rosary is NOT considered a sacrament, but is classed as a devotional practice. There are all sorts of applications as diverse as Novenas, prayer meetings and at funeral parlors.

==============================================================

The term Rosary is derived fromthe Latin term rosarium, meaning "rose garden" or "garland of roses". It is a popular and traditional Roman Catholic devotion. The term denotes both a set of prayer beads as well as the devotional prayer itself, which combines vocal (or silent) prayer and meditation. The prayers consist of repeated sequences of the Lord's Prayer followed by ten Hail Marys and a single praying of Glory be to the Father.
