Palmetto Rose
Palmetto Roses, also known as "sweetgrass roses," are handwoven roses crafted from long, slender palmetto leaves. This traditional art form originates from the Gullah Geechee culture, specifically in the South Carolina Lowcountry. Gullah artisans skillfully fold and braid these leaves into intricate rose-like designs, creating unique and durable decorative items that hold cultural significance and are often used in celebrations and events. Palmetto roses are not only beautiful but also a testament to the rich heritage of the Gullah Geechee people.
