Other Basic Rose Facts:

Roses are plants and the type of plant is called a flower.

The flowers of rose plants have sepals, petals, stamens, and pistils.

The rose flower is termed "complete" because all four structures are present.

The rose flower is termed "perfect" because it has both male (stamen) and female (pistil) reproductive parts.

More Flower Facts:

Perfect flowers also termed bisexual whether or not they have sepals or petals.

Bisexual flowers are also said to be hermaphroditic.

All complete flowers are therefore perfect and bisexual and hermaphroditic.

Rose flowers are actinomorphic (radially symmetrical) and almost always hermaphroditic.

Naturally evolved roses generally have five sepals, five petals and many spirally arranged stamens.

Domestic roses have additional petals that were bred from the stamens and may number over 50.

Roses have several to many pistils.

In roses, the bases of the sepals, petals, and stamens are fused together to form a characteristic cup-like structure called hypanthium.
