meaning of roses

The rose is undeniably the best-known symbol of beauty and love. Here are the meanings to different colors and types of roses:

Red roses say "I love you" and also stand for respect and courage.

White roses have several meanings: "You're heavenly," reverence and humility, innocence and purity, "I'm worthy of you," and secrecy and silence. **And don't confuse white roses with white rosebuds; the first means you're heavenly, while the second warns that you're too young for love.**

Red and white together mean unity.

Yellow symbolizes joy and gladness, but can also say "try to care."

Pink roses in general symbolize grace and gentility. For more subtle shades of meaning, choose deep pink to stand for gratitude and appreciation.

Light pink conveys admiration and sympathy.

Burgundy will compliment your sweetheart's unconscious beauty.

Coral or orange roses denote enthusiasm and desire.

Red and yellow blends stand for jovial and happy feelings.

Pale colors convey sociability and friendship.

A single rose stands for simplicity. In full bloom, it means "I love you" or "I love you still," and a bouquet of roses in full bloom signifies gratitude.
