Originally the rose was white. According to Theocritus, the tiowers were stained by 

 blood trora the foot of Venus, who stepped on the thorns while hastening to succor the 

 wounded Adonis. Anacreon claims that the rose was dyed with nectar by the gods when it 

 was first created, but another version states that Cupid, while leading a dance on Mount 

 Olympus, overturned a vase of nectar, thus staining the white petals.
