Latin Name/ Rosa Damascena.
The origin of the Damask rose (Rosa damascena) is believed to be in the Middle East, specifically in the region of Anatolia, which is now part of Turkey.
It is also suggested that the hybrid first arose in Anatolia several millennia ago, and it has been cultivated since antiquity.
Some evidence indicates that the origin of rose water is Iran, while the origin of its fragrant oil and extracts is Greece.
The first Damask roses are thought to have arrived in Europe at the time of the Crusades.

A Spirit Table at "The Dark Secrets Exhibition", an immersive occult art and history exhibition at The Vaults in London Waterloo.
- The Table: A classic Victorian-style wooden tripod pedestal table. The top surface has been uniquely customized to replicate a spirit board (Ouija board), complete with an alphabet arc, numbers, and the French words "OUI" (Yes), "NON" (No), and "FIN" (End) painted in gold lettering.
- The Atmosphere: The setup is framed against a vintage damask wallpaper background and dimly lit to recreate the mysterious ambiance of a Victorian spiritualist parlor or seance room.
It is the time you have wasted for your rose that makes your rose so important. Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince.
Rosa damascena, more commonly known as the Damask rose, or sometimes as the Rose of Castile, is a rose hybrid, derived from Rosa gallica and Rosa moschata. Further DNA analysis has shown that a third species, Rosa fedtschenkoana, is associated with the Damask rose.
The flowers are renowned for their fine fragrance, and are commercially harvested for rose oil (either "rose otto" or "rose absolute") used in perfumery and to make rose water and "rose concrete". The flower petals are also edible. They may be used to flavor food, as a garnish, as an herbal tea, and preserved in sugar as gulkand. Source Wikipedia.
Antoine Marie Jean-Baptiste Roger, comte de Saint-Exupéry(29 June 1900 – 31 July 1944) was a French writer, poet, aristocrat, journalist, and pioneering aviator. He became a laureate of several of France's highest literary awards and also won the U.S. National Book Award. He is best remembered for his novella The Little Prince (Le Petit Prince) and for his lyrical aviation writings, including Wind, Sand and Stars and Night Flight.
Saint-Exupéry was a successful commercial pilot before World War II, working airmail routes in Europe, Africa and South America. At the outbreak of war, he joined the French Air Force (Armée de l'Air), flying reconnaissance missions until France's armistice with Germany in 1940. After being demobilised from the French Air Force, he travelled to the United States to persuade its government to enter the war against Nazi Germany. Following a 27-month hiatus in North America, during which he wrote three of his most important works, he joined the Free French Air Force in North Africa, although he was far past the maximum age for such pilots and in declining health. He disappeared over the Mediterranean on a reconnaissance mission in July 1944, and is believed to have died at that time.
Prior to the war, Saint-Exupéry had achieved fame in France as an aviator. His literary works – among them The Little Prince, translated into 300 languages and dialects – posthumously boosted his stature to national hero status in France. He earned further widespread recognition with international translations of his other works. His 1939 philosophical memoir Terre des hommes—Man and His World became the name of an international humanitarian group, and was also used to create the central theme of the most successful world's fair of the 20th century, Expo 67 in Montreal, Quebec, Canada.
