The Language Of Roses

If you are planning on sending roses to your love this Valentine's Day, yu may be interested in the symblism associated with the different colored roses.

Red roses are a symbol of love and romance, pink roses symbolize admiration; yellow roses symbolize friendship, orange roses symbolize enthusiasm and passion, white roses symbolize spirituality and marriage, peach roses symbolize appreciation and gratitude, lavender roses symbolize enchantment and love at first sight, and blue roses are a symbol of the unattainable! So, choose your colors wisely!
