She was born Isabel Flores de Oliva in Lima, Peru, in 1586. According to tradition, a servant once saw the infant's face mysteriously transform into the appearance of a rose, and the nickname stuck. Rose herself later took the name formally at Confirmation. She was famous for her beauty, which actually became something of a problem. Her family expected her to marry. Rose had absolutely no intention of doing that. When admirers praised her appearance, she deliberately tried to avoid encouraging the attention. Eventually she consecrated herself to God and became a Dominican tertiary, taking Catherine of Siena as one of her great models. But Rose didn't enter a convent. Instead, she built herself a tiny hermitage in her family's garden. There she spent long hours in prayer while still helping support the household by sewing, embroidering, and growing flower
