Synopsis: There are two views of a rose, a front view on the left and a side view on the right of the page. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the right way up. The front view shows the deep pink-red rose flower head with many petals arranged in swirls. These are packed more tightly towards the centre of the flower. Down from the flower head, the stem runs down the page. Halfway down the stem there is a side branch with five leaves. The stem also has five sharp thorns. The side view shows the flower head to the left and a short piece of stem to the right with two thorns. Each flower head is approximately eight centimetres in diameter. There are two types of rose. A bush rose usually grows to a height of about a metre, depending on how much it is pruned. A climbing rose can grow many metres up a wall or fence.
