The Rose of Sharai (Sharon) and the Song of Solomon

Sharon is a level fertile plain between Jaffa and Mount Carmel in Israel. In Hebrew the name derives from Sharai, a princess, from whence are derived Sarai and Sarah, which again were ritual offices in Judaism.

With regard to the word rose, some dispute exists over exactly what that means. Authorities on the subject describe it as i) a crocus. ii) a polyanthus. iii) a narcissus. iv) a cistus. However, if you consult a gardening encyclopaedia you will find that the rose of Sharon is described as the hypericum or St. John's Wort which, interestingly enough, produces a red dye and is related to the cistus.
