What does Güllü mean?

Adorned with roses, bearing roses

In Turkish: güllerle bezeli, gül taşıyan

Güllü suggests being filled or decorated with roses rather than simply naming one flower. The same construction appears in Turkish phrases describing rose-patterned fabric or a garden with roses. It shares floral imagery with Gül, Gülistan, and Gülşen, though those names have different linguistic structures.
