LEARNING THE LANGUAGE OF LOVE AND FLOWER "The Rose Knows"

  If you say it with roses on Valentine’s Day, are you sure of what you are actually saying?  Every rose color has its own special meaning expressing many different feelings and sentiments.  To speak the language of roses, remember these color clues:

Red Roses:  “I love you.” They also stand for respect or

courage.

White Roses:  “You’re heavenly.”  They also convey reverence and humility, innocence and purity, secrecy and silence.

Red and White Roses together:  Unity.

Yellow Roses:  Joy and gladness.

Yellow and Orange Roses mixed:  Passionate thoughts.

Red and Yellow Roses combined:  “Congratulations!”

Coral or Orange Roses:  Enthusiasm or desire.

Pink Roses:  Grace and gentility.  Use them to say:  “You’re lovely.”  Deep pink roses say “Thank you;” light pink conveys admiration.

Pink and White Roses together  “I love you still and always will.”

A Single Rose:  Perpetual love.

Sweetheart Roses:  “You’re sweet,” and hybrid tea roses say, “Ill remember you always.”

Pale Colors:  Friendship.  Send peach to a tennis partner, lavender to the neighbor who keeps your spare key.

Two Roses:  Taped or wired together to form a single stem, signal an engagement or coming marriage.
