I remember Valentines Day in high school we were given the option to purchase a Rose from the school. The rose would be delivered to the person of your choice mid-day on Valentines. There were 3 colors you could choose from Red, Pink, and White. There was always a huge uproar about making sure you sent the right color to express your feelings. So this is for all of you who cannot remember what the colors mean:
|
|
|
Pink
In general, symbolizes grace and gentility. The pink rose carries the message "you're gentle and graceful". Deep pink says "thank you". Light pink conveys admiration and sympathy. |
|
|
Peach
Conveys sociabilty and friendship, modesty, appreciation, admiration and sympathy. |
|
|
Red
No color can say "I love you" better than this Valentine favorite. It not only speaks of passion but also stands for noble values such as respect and courage. |
|
| White
Has several special meanings - "you're heavenly," reverence and humility, innocence and purity, "I'm worthy of you," and secrecy and silence. In rose history, white roses are just as colorful as red ones. |
|
| Yellow
Expresses joy and gladness - the best gift for new mothers, newlyweds and graduates. Yellow roses are also a "not-too-obvious" reminder for the busy husband, wife, boyfriend or girlfriend. |
|
|
Orange
Denotes enthusiasm and desire. Perfect for letting people know that you want to get to know them better.
Hopefully this can be a quick guide to assist anyone who has questions. The best way to say I love you is a dozen red roses, they can also say "IM SORRY!!! |
