WELCOME TO THE GEORGIA STATE COUNCIL
The Cherokee Rose is Georgia"s State Flower. The name "Cherokee Rose" is a local designation derived from the Cherokee Indians. In 1916, the Georgia General Assembly, with the support of
the Georgia Federation of Women's Clubs selected, Cherokee rose as the State's floral emblem because it was "indigenous to its area and grows with equal luxuriance in every county of the state".
The Cherokee rose is extremely hardy and beautiful just like the Georgia Council of Perioperative Nurses. The beautiful small roses symbolized the legend that our Creator gave us a gift to remind us life is a cycle and that the Cherokee people will always survive. Georgia Council will survive and
the rose on the AORN quilt will symbolize our hope and survival. The center of gold in the middle
of the rose reminds us never to harm others. Perioperative nurses always put patient safety first.
