The meaning of roses♥


I never thought that different colors of roses have different meanings(well, of coz I didn't know coz I never received one before). So the other day my friend did asked me this question: What color of roses do you like? Kinda forgot what I answered her. Anyway, decided to check on the Internet for those meanings.It's kinda interesting.

Red rose:Red is the symbol of love. To give red roses says "I love you still"

White rose:Shows purity and innocence. They also represent humility, youthfulness and charm.


Blue rose: Unobtainable, impossible love.

Pink rose: To give pink roses shows grace, joy, and gratitude. Pale pink also has the meaning of fun attached to it.



Orange rose: Desire and enthusiasm. These would be a great choice to give to someone if you want the relationship to develop further.


Yellow rose: Joy and friendship - yellow roses don't specifically show love. They can also represent starting over,or a new beginning. Yellow tipped with red shows friendship falling in love.
 
Brown rose: Earth or wood. They can also mean friendship or appreciation.



Purple rose: Enchantment, mystery, or royalty.

Now, how many should you give? Numbers are important too you know.
  • 1:Love at first sight - you are "the one" 
  • 2:Mutual love and feelings
  • 3: Also says "I Love You".
  • 7: Together for ever
  • 10:Represents perfection. To give someone 10 roses shows you feel that way about them.
  • 12:The standard for "be mine". Often given on Valentines day, when for a married couple,actually 7 or 10 might be a better choice. (slightly cheaper as well! ;-)
  • 13:A sign of enduring friendship.
  • 15: I'm sorry. 
So,now you know the meaning of different colors of roses. I guess roses are not necessarily given on certain occasions like Valentine day or Birthdays, it can be given anytime just to remind them how special they are. There's no such things that girls doesn't like roses. They do!

So gentlemen, do your thing!*wink*
