Hermaphrodite (Roses)
When an organism has both male and female and reproductive organs, it is called a hermaphrodite. When talking about hermaphrodites in botany, they are called monoecious, or bisexual, instead. Monoecious plants have sperm and eggs on the same gametophyte, which is the sexual phase in plants. Most angiosperms are known to be monoecious, roses being one of them.
