With Valentine’s Day around the corner, many of us opt for giving flowers to our loved ones instead of a romantic dinner at an expensive restaurant or elaborate gifts.
However, rose colours have different meanings.
Rekord has taken the liberty to research what the different colours mean.
Red roses can also be used to convey respect, admiration or devotion. The number of red roses has special romantic meanings. Twelve red roses is the most popular of all, which conveys “Be mine” and “I love you”.
There are a lot of variations of the pink rose. Generally pink roses are used to convey gentle emotions such as admiration, joy and gratitude. Light pink rose blooms are indicative of sweetness and innocence. Deep pink rose blooms convey deep gratitude and appreciation. Pink roses also imply elegance and grace.
Yellow roses express enthusiasm and evoke sunny feelings of joy, warmth and welcome. They are symbols of friendship and caring. The yellow rose does not carry an undertone of romance. It purely indicates platonic emotions.
White roses are associated with new beginnings and make an ideal accompaniment to a first-time bride walking down the aisle. White can also be used to convey sympathy or humility. They are also indicative of spirituality.
An orange rose reminds us of a fiery blaze. These fiery blooms signify passion and energy. Orange roses can be used to express intense desire or pride. They also convey a sense of fascination. They rival only the red roses as messengers of passion in romance.
