Secrets behind rose colors
As you choose your roses and flowers for Valentine's Day, make sure you are sending the right meaning. Rose colors carry traditional meanings. Here's what you need to know before you order your roses from French Florist.
Say 'I Love You' with Red
If you are sending flowers to say 'I love you,' then red roses are the choice. The red rose has shown the spirit of love and romance for centuries, with the idea that love blooms stronger than thorns. If you are giving to someone you love deeply, make sure the arrangement includes some red roses.
Celebrate Young Love with White
White is the color of purity and innocence, and as such white roses represent young innocent love. White can also represent a new beginning, making it a great choice for the romance you are just starting this Valentine's Day.
Say 'thank You' With Pink or Peach
Pink roses show joy and gratefulness. If you are giving roses to someone you admire, but are not yet to the point of loving, then pink roses can be a great choice. They are sweet, delicate, romantic but not quite as bold as a brilliant red. Of course, if you are teetering between love and admiration, consider red-tipped pink to cover both. If you are simply saying 'thank you' without the romance, peach is a great choice. Peach shows deep appreciation and gratitude, without the romantic twist.
Give Tribute to Friendship with Yellow
Valentine's Day is not just for lovers. It can be a great opportunity to celebrate the love of friendship as well. Yellow roses are the traditional rose for friendship, and Rose and Lily Splendor has yellow roses paired with bright pink lilies.
Declare Love at First Sight with Purple
The mystery of purple roses embraces the reality that sometimes, love at first sight does happen. Proclaim this fact with a violet display of roses.
Celebrate Passion with Orange
Orange roses can be a symbol of energy and passion. You can give orange roses this Valentine's Day to showcase your excitement for your loved one and your passionate romance. Salmon is another color with this meaning, but with a slightly more pink tinge.
Mix It Up for Multiple Messages
Maybe you are looking to say more than one thing this Valentine's Day. Why not mix it up with a mixed bouquet of roses. Pair red with orange to proclaim passion and romance, or white and pink to proclaim young love, admiration and budding romance. Rose Indulgence pairs red and pink with beautiful white hydrangeas for a stunning display of love and admiration.
