2014 Canadian $5 Flowers in Canada: Rose Fine Silver Niobium Coloured Coin

Canada's gardens are filled with a tremendous variety of flowers, but a few of them remain all-time favourites year after year. One of them is the rose, arguably the crowning glory of gardens everywhere. This seemingly delicate beauty is as old as the dinosaurs with roughly 150 species blooming in the Northern Hemisphere. 

Today, gardeners cherish the rose for its endless forms and colours, its fragrance and its historic reputation as the preeminent exemplar of floral beauty from the Orient to the Middle East to Europe. 

A beautiful gift for someone you know who loves flowers!
