rosiness

/ˈɹɑzənəs/ noun

The quality of being rosy.

Word Origin Rosiness comes from rose, the flower, which Latin borrowed from Greek rhodon, ultimately from PIE *wrod- 'rose.' So rosy means rose-colored, and rosiness is the state of being pink and hopeful. The same root gives us rosette, roseate, and even the name Rhoda. The flower's name has hardly changed in thousands of years.
