Rose Symbolism: Since the earliest years of the Church a red rose has been the symbol of Martyrdom and a white rose the symbol of purity. Before it became one of the flowers of the earth, the rose grew in Paradise without thorns. Only after the fall of man did the rose take on its thorns to remind man of the sins he had committed and his fall from grace; whereas its fragrance and beauty remained to remind him of the splendor of Paradise. The Virgin Mary is sometimes referred to as "a rose without thorns" because she was exempt from Original Sin.
