Amid a display of 6,500 roses, Chris Harrison, host of ABC-TV's 'The Bachelor,' led the unveiling of the newest variety of red rose, called The Palazzo Rose, after the Las Vegas resort. The rose 'christening' ceremony -- held in the resort's picturesque Waterfall Atrium & Gardens -- was also attended by representatives of the flower's breeders and growers, which was developed in The Netherlands.

Las Vegas resort is namesake of new variety of crimson red rose and will exclusively feature the rose for one year; Faith Hill received first arrangement on Opening Night at The Venetian.
