The Tudor rose is the heraldic design adopted by Henry VII when he came to the throne. It combines the red rose of Lancaster (Henry VII family) and the white rose of York (his wife Elizabeths family) and is supposed to represent the end of the Wars of the Roses, which had raged between the two families for decades.
