The Color Meanings Of Roses

Red roses: Have traditionally signified true love, passion, beauty, and courage. They can also suggest respect and congratulations. A single Red Rose is a universal symbol of love and is an accepted way of saying "I love you." A thorn less red rose is meant to express love at first sight.

White Roses: have traditionally meant innocence, secrecy or quiet, sacredness, youth. They can also be used to say, "I miss you." They are often carried by brides to connote a happy and pure love. White rosebuds are thought to symbolize young girlhood.

Pink roses: have traditionally been given to communicate thanks, happiness, admiration, honesty, and grace. Pale pink roses are sometimes given to express sympathy. The pale type of roses can also signify sweetness. Dark pink roses are traditionally given as thanks.

Pale purple roses: are sometimes called lavender roses and sometimes referred to as lilac roses. In either case, they can symbolize love at first sight or enchantment.

Yellow roses have long stood for friendship, joy, new starts, freedom, welcomes, remembrance, jealousy, and delight. Yellow roses are traditionally sent to new mothers, recent graduates, and newlyweds as a type of congratulations. Yellow roses with red edges have often stood for new love or deep friendship.

Peachy roses: traditionally communicate appreciation, gratitude, agreements, and sincerity. The paler type of roses mean modesty while the darker variety are sometimes used to express desire.

Orange roses: signify desire and enthusiasm.

Black roses: do not exist, but florists create black roses through dyes. These express death and goodbyes.
Blue roses: were traditionally created by dyeing white roses. Because roses lack a gene to produce delphinidin, the primary plant pigment that produces true blue flowers. Delphinidin gives blue hues to flowers like violas and delphiniums. It also gives the blue-red color of the grape that produces Cabernet Sauvignon, and can be found in cranberries and Concord grapes. "Blue roses" have been bred by conventional hybridization methods, but the results, such as "Blue Moon" are more accurately described as lilac in color. However, after thirteen years of joint research by an Australian company Florigene, and Japanese company Suntory, a blue rose was created in 2004 using genetic engineering. Blue roses traditionally signify mystery or attaining the impossible. They are believed to be able to grant the owner youth or grant wishes. This symbolism derives from the rose's meaning in the language of flowers common in Victorian times.

So no matter what your situation, there is a rose color or combination that will express what you want to say. Valentine's Day is the perfect occasion to declare your intentions, remind someone how much you care, or express your appreciation of a friendship.
