I wouldn't mind having rose bushes in the game if they actually took up a block like leaves did. When I heard they added rose bushes, I was thinking "great, now I can have something other than a fence or a wall around my house. Something that actually looks nice." But then I saw this. This rose bush is an abomination. I would much rather them have kept the old rose instead of this rose bush.
That being said, I also dislike the way the poppy is done as well. Why does the poppy not give you an ingredient that makes it possible to craft a health potion? Or, failing that, you can eat it for a heart or two of health. Considering the fact that the poppy is widely used as a medicinal herb to dull pain, it would make more sense to keep the rose for dye, and add the poppy for medicinal purposes.
Roses were basically dandelions but taller and red.
Also, I directly saw a Golem offering a poppy to a villager.
In my opinion, the poppy looks more like a rose than the rose did. I know you addressed that with the bit about the iconic look of the rose, but dandelions looked the same, but shorter and yellow, as I said, so that look is kept in the dandelion.

I agree that a 1x1 shaped rose bush would be awesome, and even better if it was a leaf block with roses in it and used as natural generating bushes, but look at it this way. You can have a 2 block high wall and decorate it with thick red plants just as high.

But you can pass through the rose bushes as they are done now. That's no use as a fence
Or like a parent who has their red-haired child kidnapped and then the kidnapper is like "here, have this red-bearded dude and this other red-headed kid. What are you complaining about?! They have red hair don't they?"
That is the worst comparison I've ever heard! A child is a human and a flower is a plant.
The roses were just turned into poppys, that's all. They're the exact same thing with a different texture and name, they even can be made into the "rose red" dye just like the roses could.
On one hand it is kinda sad to see the original rose go, just because it is one of those things that's been a part of the game since forever, but on the other hand, all of the new flowers look so damn good, and an "update" to one of the old ones isnt really a bad idea.
They could make rose bushes drop a bunch of roses if broken by a tool other than a sword or shears.
This would call for a separate id for roses and poppies. With the individual roses you can place them so you have the old rose. But, you could add the other roses to the single rose and they will stack like thin snow! This would mean the rose would have meta data(?) like wood to determine how many roses are in the bush. This would add roses, and variants of the rose bush.
Roses don't exist in Minecraft Pocket Edition, or even the Minecraft Pi Edition, so I guess it's only logical to remove them and replace them with something else.
Honestly, I have to agree with Spaceboot. I loved the rose, and I don't understand why Jeb had to remove the rose, add in a poppy and make the rose "taller". I loved the classic rose, and no re-texturing will cut it for me.

I said decorate it, like break up the grey of a cobblestone wall with roses.

That would not look good at all, though, think about it, a bunch of wall segments with rose bushes in between them...

Roses are still better then all of the new ones

Those are poppies.

That "just-a-flower" happened to be a very nice addition in MInecraft for a long time, LONG TIME.
