Host Devyn Whitmire visits Charleston’s City Market to learn how to fold a Palmetto Rose. The weaving of the Charleston Palmetto Rose dates back to the Civil War. Tradition holds that southern ladies would give their true love a Palmetto Rose to keep them safe from harm as they rode into war. The Palmetto Rose is made from fronds from South Carolina's official state tree: The Palmetto Tree. Part of the "Go For It! Discover Something New" series.
