Say It With Roses! Part I

It is said that there is symbolism in the color of roses when one person gives them to another as a gift.

Here are some of the colors and what they mean:

The red rose is the universally symbolic of love and romance. It is the perfect way to say "I love you!"

A lavender rose suggests regal majesty and splendor.  These might make the perfect accent in a bouquet for one who wins a beauty pageant or is named Homecoming Queen?

White roses signify purity, innocence, & sympathy.  That's probably why they are common

components of weddings and funerals.

Stay tuned: more about the symbolism of roses coming soon!
