They were released on 14th February 2011. Rosebud Dragons are a female-only breed. They are only capable of producing more Rosebuds during a certain period in February, however, they are breedable year-round, producing the male's breed of egg. Each scroll/account is limited to 2 of this breed to prevent hoarding.

In-Game Description
Egg: "This sweet smelling egg is covered by a ribbon."

Hatchling: "Aww... It's a cute baby dragon. It's chubby and pink with a faint rose-like smell."

Mature Hatchling: "Aww... It's a cute baby dragon. It's chubby and pink with a faint rose-like smell. And look! It's grown wings and the flower is blooming! It must be close to maturing."

Adult: "Rosebud dragons are a fun and social breed found most often in the spring. The petal-like feathers that grow on their sides spread their sweet and floral scent. Although they have poor eyesight, they have ribbon-like extensions that extend their olfactory abilities to help create a map of the area around them. When flying, Rosebud dragons tend to hover, using their wings to fan their scent throughout the air. Being widespread, they go to great effort to visit as many flowery fields as possible."
