 'A rose is a rose is a rose' (Gertrude Stein).

And while it grows and slowly unfolds it becomes unique – each rose different from another. 
                    ‘Won’t you come into the garden? I would like my roses to see you’ (Sheridan)

Rose growers love them like pets and give them invented names.
We named our roses by numbers. Because:

                  'A rose by any other name would smell as sweet' (Shakespeare 'Romeo & Juliet')
