Please see full article for explanation of abreviations.

"In summary, incorporation of rice hulls and press
mud in traditional substrates improved the growth and
quality indices and increased flower yield of Rosa hybrida
L. cvs. ‘Kardinal’, ‘Anjlique’ and ‘Gold Medal’. Of all
combinations of substrates, Soil + PM + RH and PM +
RH had more pronounced effect as compared with others.
Among cultivars, ‘Kardinal’ responded better to these
substrates as compared with ‘Anjlique’ and ‘Gold Medal’.
Incorporation of organic agricultural byproducts in
conventional medium are more effective in inducing
better growth and producing superior quality cut rose
stems than traditional alone. Therefore, based on
performance of tested rose cultivars, use of rice hulls and
press mud improve the vigor of the plant to pave the way
for higher yields of superior quality cut roses."

ok -- if you say so.

In my own garden setting I've found that organic topdressings make for strong growing roses with lots of blooms, so it makes sense to me that rice hulls could have benefit.
