Roses Are a Sign of Love

Roses have been associated with love from ancient times. There are even legends about these flowers. One of them says that the first rose was created by Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of love. She collected her tears and mixed them with the blood of her lover. And this is how the first rose appeared. People loved roses and used them as decorations during various festivities. Roses were even used as secret messages.

This tradition still continues today, and roses are an ideal Valentine's gift. We give roses to express feelings that we don’t say loudly. But it’s also important to choose the right color of your flowers. Bright roses are great for a new love, and simple blooms are the best for a long-lasting relationship.

Rose Colors and Their Meanings

Today, the rose palette is impressive. Each color has its own meaning and expresses a different feeling. So, here is a little hint on how you can match your flowers to the message you want to share.

Red roses. Red has always been the color of passion. If you want to show your deep love or refresh your existing relationship, choose red roses. Such a bouquet says, “My love for you is never over.”

Pink roses. This color effortlessly radiates admiration. Pink roses talk about sweet, innocent love. They are ideal for new relationships when you want to show your feelings gently.

White roses. White shade is excellent for new beginnings. If you are about to make a proposal, white roses will make the moment memorable.

Yellow roses. This bright color is pure joy. Yellow is not a traditional love color, but a yellow rose can add a cheerful touch to a Valentine's bouquet.  

Orange roses. This shade is incredily energetic. Orange roses are the best if your partner loves adventures and surprises.

Lavender roses. These are rare and look like magic. Florists say lavender roses signify love at first sight. They are perfect if you want to add a fairy-tale touch to your romance. 

Mixed colors. Here, you are free to experiment with endless combinations. A rainbow mix means diversity and joy in love.

Don’t forget you can choose different rose varieties for your bouquet. Long-stemmed roses are elegant and classic. And garden roses are playful and romantic. 

Tips for Choosing Roses

Correctly chosen flowers will last. How to select roses that will please your eyes for long? First check if your roses are fresh. Select sturdy stems and firm buds that are only partially open. There should be no brown petals. Fully bloomed roses will fade much quicker.

Think about how many roses you want. Even a single rose can be intimate and romantic. A traditional bunch is twelve roses. If you want something special, consider 50, 75 or even 100 stems to impress your partner.

Design also matters. You can go simple and hand-tie your roses. It will be a personal bouquet for your loved one. Alternatively, you can order boxed roses to protect them for delivery. Always include a card message if you don’t bring your flowers in person.

Think about what your Valentine likes and needs. They may be allergic to certain flowers or pollen, or care about eco-friendly and responsibly sourced blooms. For example, ROSEMIA Flowers closely cooperate with local flower suppliers who are focused on sustainability and planet protection.

Choose seasonal flowers. Valentine's Day is in winter, so imported roses are common in many shops. Opt for in-season varieties and enjoy better quality. Finally, think about delivery. Same-day options from local florists like ROSEMIA can save the day for last-minute romantics.

Make Your Rose Gift Unforgettable

You can make your rose bouquet unforgettable if you add a few elements to it. Don’t be afraid to mix your roses with other flowers for a unique design. Add green leaves for a natural touch.

Make your love gift really touching - pack your roses in a heart-shaped box for Valentine's Day. Add a handwritten note with words only your loved one would understand.

A few steps can extend the flowers' life. Trim stems at an angle, and use clean water with flower food. Keep your roses away from direct sunlight or drafts.
