The invention provides a rose characterized by comprising a flavone added by a genetic modification method. The flavone is typically produced by expression of a transferred flavone synthase gene. The flavone synthase gene is, for example, a flavone synthase gene of the family Scrophulariaceae, and specifically it may be the flavone synthase gene of snapdragon of the family Scrophulariaceae, or the flavone synthase gene of torenia of the family Scrophulariaceae. |
