The red rose of Lancaster and the White Rose of York
After the Wars of the Roses the two emblems - the white rose of the House of York and the red rose of the House of Lancaster - were merged to form the Tudor rose. The rose combines both red and white petals.
red and white like the tudor rose colour
Lancaster was red, the House of York was white
The Tudor Rose badge is a red rose with a white rose inside it. Red for the House of Lancaster, and white for the House of York.
The Tudor rose came into being because of the war of the roses. The war of the roses was a war fought between two large and powerful families in Tudor times: The House of York, and the House of Lancaster. The York rose was white, and the lancaster rose was red. When these two families combined to make the Tudor dynasty, they combined their symbols, the roses, to further unite the houses. Thus: the white and red Tudor rose. Hope this helps! :)
The House of Lancashire. The House of York's symbol was a white rose.
the Lancaster family has a symbol of the red rose and the york family had a symbol of a white rose and Henry vii married Elizabeth of york so the red and white rose came together to make the Tudor rose
See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tudor_rose. The red represents the house of Lancaster, and the white the house of York. When the two families came together, they created a rose which represented the emblems of both households.
The Tudor rose (sometimes called the Union Rose) is the traditional floral heraldic emblem of England. When Henry Tudor took the crown of England from Richard III in battle, he brought about the end of the Wars of the Roses between the House of Lancaster (whose badge was a red rose) and the House of York (whose badge was a white rose). His father was Edmund Tudor from the House of Richmond, and his mother was Margaret Beaufort from the House of Lancaster; he married Elizabeth of York to bring all factions together. On his marriage, Henry adopted the Tudor Rose badge conjoining the White Rose of York and the Red Rose of Lancaster. The Tudor Rose is occasionally seen divided in quarters (heraldically as 'quartered') and vertically (in heraldic terms per pale) red and white. More often, the Tudor Rose is depicted as a double rose, white on red and is always described, heraldically, as 'proper'. It's a very symbolic emblem of English history.
The Tudor Rose is a combination of a red and white rose (white on red). In the middle ages, during the Plantagenet dynasty, the Wars of the Roses lasted almost 100 years and were the ongoing battles between the House of Lancaster (red rose) and the House of York (white rose), for control of the English throne. The conflict ended with the marriage of Henry Tudor (House of Lancaster) who became Henry VII, to Elizabeth of York, combining the two warring houses. The 'virgin queen' Elizabeth I, also known as 'The Tudor Rose', was the last monarch of the House of Tudor.
