[Vwoolf] White Rose Leaves?

[Danell Jones]

So, in her diary entry on “Stella & Jack’s Wedding Day,” Virginia writes, “White rose leaves from S’s bouquet.”

Apparently, white rose leaves were some kind of Victorian thing, but I don’t know what. Were these rose leaves painted white? Or simply the green leaves of white roses? Are they confections put in the bouquet? 

I would appreciate any help you can offer.
