Abstract
I will present two parts of my analysis. In the first part, I will attempt to analyze universal values of the taste of beauty based on contemporary research in the field of socio-behavioral anthropology and neurophysiology. Each era had its roses, its ideas, shaped by environmental and cultural factors as much as social needs.
In the second part, I will present how understanding these issues affects my breeding research.
Bio
Lukas Rojewski has over a decade, focused on breeding rose varieties that are frost resistant with sustainable growth responding to climate changes. In my search of new genes, I looked at roses from the Rosa alba group, R.setigera, hybrids of R. × kordesii, R. x virginiana, Geschwind’s roses, Canadian Explorer series and many more. Before getting into rose breeding, As a forester, at the age of 21, I performed my first cross-pollination. However, life wrote another scenario. I started my career in a global corporation that gave me the opportunity to visit a lot of countries and learn about fascinating differences in cultures. After leaving the corporation, I ran my own catering company for over a decade.
When I franchised the business, finally I could devote myself to my long-standing passion for roses and start breeding new rose varieties. I'm privileged to be a member of the Breeders Club at the World Federation of Rose Societies and founder and first president of the Polish Rose Society.
