Why are you adding -depth 16, that only makes things larger in file size

try


composite -dissolve 50x100% -gravity center rose: logo: -strip -colors 256 \
-depth 8 -type palette PNG8:logo_rose.png

identify logo_rose.png
logo_rose.png PNG 640x480 640x480+0+0 8-bit PseudoClass 255c 39.9KB 
0.020u 0:00.059

shows the result as 40KB
