More detail about the use of the Rose as a royal symbol can be found on
http://www.karpov.ru/katalog/_roza_en.php, a page showing a novelty set
based on an English historic event called the Wars of the Roses. A
genealogy at
http://www.channel4.com/history/microsites/H/history/heads/footnotes/monarchtree.html
shows the kings involved and much else.
