SO28 is the most traditional rose silhouette in the Floral Mongers sola range. Rounded petals wrap closely around a high, spiralled centre and open outward in loose, cupped layers, with the edges of many petals rolling back just as a garden rose does in full bloom. The result is a deep, three-dimensional flower with real volume from the side.
Compared with flatter, camellia-style sola roses, the Roma Rose stands taller and looks softer, with irregular, naturally curled petal rims rather than neat pointed tips. The ivory sola shows fine fibre lines along each petal, and light pools in the curled edges. The product images show pairs of roses on timber, stone and hessian, in a wooden dish, and turned over to show a flat, round sola disc at the base.
Handcrafted in India from natural sola (shola) pith, SO28 is a dependable all-rounder: it anchors dried and sola bouquets, sits neatly on diffuser bottles, and works as a romantic topper for gift boxes, anniversary hampers and wedding favours.
Floral Mongers supplies the Roma Rose in bulk, in natural ivory or dyed shades, for florists, gift companies and export buyers.

Natural variation
Each Roma Rose is shaped by hand, so the curl of the petal rims, the height of the centre and the openness of the bloom vary from piece to piece. Natural sola can range from pale ivory to a slightly warmer cream. These are natural characteristics of handmade and botanical products, not defects; shade, size and grade are confirmed on sample approval.
Care & storage
- Keep dry and away from direct sunlight
- Hold by the base; the rolled petal edges can flatten if squeezed
- Dust with cool air or a very soft brush
- Store upright in a rigid box with tissue so the cupped form is kept
- Unpack promptly on arrival and let the pieces air in a dry room; avoid storing in sealed, humid packaging
