I would like to propose the hypothesis that “rose” and “lily” (and their
equivalents) used to be used as generic labels denoting something like
“beautiful flower.”</p>

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">And
then there's the Chilean Rose to remind us that beauty is in the eye of the
beholder.<br>

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">And
then there’s what in some relevant languages is also called the equivalent of “rose”:
<i>Herpes zoster</i>, a.k.a. shingles. I’m one of the “freaks” that has had it three
times so far ... (and in my
case, unusually, the pain sets in before “the rose blooms” ...).</p>
