Description

A common flowering plant, roses grow typically in the form of bushes or small shrubs, though they can be trained to grow in a specific shape with a trellis. A single plant will have multiple large, showy blossoms that start as tight buds, then open and expand, often atop tall stalks featuring sharp thorns interspersed between elliptical leaves. Highly fragrant, the distilled essence is often used in perfumes, baked goods, candy, and sachets.

This particular variety of rose bears sapphire blue flowers infused with a luminesence.

Lore

Roses are a real world plant. There is a wide variety of Elanthian lore associated with them, ranging from symbols for Arkati to elven crests to various uses in the Language of Flowers.

Appearances

The velvety onyx rose only grows in Naidem. It can most easily be foraged in the Graveyard Temporalis.
