To find the distance between the Roses located at (5, 1) and the Lilies located at (5, 5), we can use the distance formula for two points \((x_1, y_1)\) and \((x_2, y_2)\):

\[
\text{Distance} = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}
\]

In this case, the coordinates for Roses are \((5, 1)\) and for Lilies are \((5, 5)\).

Plugging the coordinates into the formula:

\[
\text{Distance} = \sqrt{(5 - 5)^2 + (5 - 1)^2}
\]

Calculating each part:

\[
= \sqrt{(0)^2 + (4)^2}
\]
\[
= \sqrt{0 + 16}
\]
\[
= \sqrt{16}
\]
\[
= 4
\]

Therefore, the distance between the Roses and the Lilies is **4 feet**.
