The ruffled petals of this romantic antike garden rose are almost too much to bear. The name couldn't be more perfect, and looking at these pictures reminds me why roses have been used throughout history as a way to declare love. They are beautiful, and sensual, and perfect, straight from nature- and what better way to tell a person you love that you think they are all of those things, than by giving them a flower that embodies the same qualities???
