howdy y'all
Was wondering where you've been.

Welcome Word flowerforyou What yah writing about?


I know this may sound weird for a man to write about but I'm writing about the meaning of the color of roses. I assure you I am 100% straight. lol
Nope not weird, interesting.


As it turns out carold it is pretty interesting. The colors and the numbers of roses sends a message all by it's self. Being ignorant of such things (before I wrote this article) it was no wonder some women were offended by the roses I sent them. Landed me on the curb with my heart on the sidewalk asking me what the hell I did wrong.

I would post it here but it's hard to sell something that you've already given away. I'll take questions though and post the answers. :wink:

Red Rose
This one is the most obvious. It means "I love you." It represents romance and love.

Deep Pink
This simply means "thank you". If someone you know does something nice for you, a deep pink rose is a good way of saying "thank you".

Regular Pink
A pink rose represents happiness. It's great to give a pink rose to a partner to say, "I'm very happy with our relationship."

Light Pink
A light pink rose means "sympathy". When someone has had a loss then light pink roses is a very nice way of expressing your condolences.

White Rose
A white rose symbolizes innocence and purity. When combined with red roses (see further down), it represents "unity".

Yellow Rose
A yellow rose symbolizes friendship and caring. It's the perfect innocent gift to give to a friend or give to a loved one when you simply want to say "I care". When given to a friend it also means "I'm happy with our friendship."

Lavender Rose
A lavender rose is a symbol of "falling in love". When you give it to a person you are saying "I have fallen in love with you and am enchanted by you."

Orange Rose
An orange rose is a symbol of desire. "I desire you" or "I desire to get to know you better" is the message that orange roses send.

Black Rose
Never ever give a woman a black rose, because Hollywood has, unfortunately, made out the meaning to be "death". These aren't easy to find and some maintain that they don't actually "exist".

Blue Rose
A blue rose is very hard to reproduce or find, although some floral companies are trying to do it naturally. Others just dye them. To some a blue rose symbolizes "mystery" and to others "attaining the impossible". A blue rose given can symbolize the rarity of your partner. You have attained the impossible.

Mixture of White and Red Roses
When you deliver white and red roses together to someone, it is a symbol of unification and unity. "May we always be together as one."

If you want to be creative, you can combine some of the above roses to send several messages at once. For example, send lavender and orange roses to say that you are falling in love with the person and desire to know them even more. Provide yellow and pink roses combined to let a grieving friend know you care and are sorry for their hardship and loss.

There you go ese. I get paid by the word so I stretch it out a bit. lol The numbers of and combinations of roses can be configured to say just about anything. Flower shops also "paint" roses so the list is almost endless. A white rose pained yellow and a rainbow colored rose to names a couple. I shy away from the rainbow ones though.noway

All flowers have meaning - a "secret language" from at least as far back as the Victorian Era, but many of the meanings are even more ancient.

True galendgirl. Roses are about as far as I want to venture into writing about. I want to write about many different subjects before I'm pushing up daisies. laugh

Afternoon TxsGal. I'm trying to recover from a hard drive crash on one of my research computers. I think a possum got in there and nibbled on some of the data. laugh

I'm packing up to make the big move to Garland from Rowlett. I can throw a rock and hit the city limits sign of Garland from where I am moving from so it's not that big of distance. Just a big pain in the rear. frustrated
