(they love roses too)  

They also make rose perfume and have a perfume class that you can go to, to learn how to harvest roses to make perfume and yes, the perfume smells delicous.  If you like roses this is the place to go.  Make sure you stop to smell the roses and take a few home so that you can enjoy the beauty from your window too:)
