Description

In this remastered episode, we dig deep into roses. With a colorful history and bright future, it's no wonder this flower is a favorite of gardener's and scientists alike. If you like ancient scandal, folklore, or archaic enema methods, this episode is for you! 

We also put together a playlist of all our vaguely love-related episodes, which you can check out here.
