What do Different Colors of Roses Mean?

Do potted miniature Roses have meaninig? The guy I am dating where our status has not been discussed yet gave them to me last night.

@anon353747: If she had a favorite rose color, use that. Otherwise, ask your local florist what the nicest colors are that he or she has in stock and have your wreath made from those.

What color would be right for a funeral of a family member? I was not necessary close to her but still loved her and will miss her deeply.

No matter what color the rose is, I think it's still good for us to know the true meaning behind it. Also to prevent misunderstandings.

It's best to also convey the message personally to that person who is receiving the rose, since all colours of roses have many different meanings. Good to learn new stuff and knowledge which will help in the future.

Forgive me roses? What color should I get?

The blue rose means mystery.

So if I gave my best friend a red rose that would mean I love you more than friends? Or can it mean I love you as a friend too?

my boyfriend gave me red and yellow roses on our six month anniversary.

What does the color of a blue rose mean?

roses are so beautiful. i think for a wedding i would do all white roses and have them at the bride and groom's table. i would do a vase of all the different colors. i think that would be gorgeous.

black roses do not always mean death. they mean rebirth, new beings. i would love to get black roses. they are different.

what about blue?

At church when I was a little girl on Mother's Day we would either wear a pink or white carnation. Pink meaning your Mother was still alive and white if she had passed. I think the same would be true of roses: white meaning passed.

Most people now days don't know that the color of roses or the various types of different flowers mean anything. Along with many of the sweet customs of the past, this knowledge has also passed mostly into antiquity.

But since my mother's funeral is tomorrow I wanted to have her immediate family (children, grandchildren) to each lay a single perfect rose into her coffin (blanket her with them) and I wanted to know exactly what the color would 'say' symbolically. I chose white roses since along with other meanings it represents 'a love stronger than death'!

How appropriate for this precious, ever sweet, Godly woman who gave me a home and became my Mother when I was but six months of age!

i don't think people really know what it means when they give you a colored rose, though. it's just for show.

I've been with my live in boyfriend for more than 10 years and he gave me a dozen yellow and pink roses. Should I be insulted?

What does 14 long-stemmed, red roses mean?

what if my ex step father gave my mom six white roses and one pink rose. what would it mean?

I want to send roses to my ex-girlfriend. I know I am not supposed to do it but i have a feeling she will welcome them because i know her. The message is "am truly sorry, forgive me" and that, "we can have a new beginning. I am still in love with you." Any ideas? what color, number or combination? I don't want this to backfire. Please help. Thanks.

My boyfriend gave me a red rose for our fifth month anniversary! What does that mean?

I gave my girlfriend (rather ex-girlfriend) deep purple roses to signify my eternal love for her. She thought they were black, so she dumped me. I didn't know that the color of flowers could create such problems in my life.

How can i unfold the petals of a rosebud with out breaking them?

white rose means true love, yellow is friendship.

Wow I didn't know the meaning of roses until now! What does a blue rose mean?

I'm going to give my best friend a light pink rose tomorrow because i do that for all my friends at the end of the school year and a gift basket.

The beautiful blue rose symbolizes mysterious and unattainable. It is because we have never truly managed to cultivate a wild blue rose.

white also means purity, yellow means friendship.

black means death, smart ones.

before we started dating my boyfriend sent me one black rose for each week he knew me and then when we started dating he sent me one white rose for every week we had been dating.

My boyfriend sent me 15 red roses.

the amount of roses you send has a specific meaning.

Very interesting. I think not only the color, the amount also has some meaning.

Me and my friend got bored one day and we said that if red means love and white means pure, we said that pink must mean true love waits!

i got six red roses, six yellow roses, six light pink roses and six sterling silver roses for valentines day. They were/are beautiful.

I was so happy!

Darn. I gave my mom two yellow roses with red tips. I didn't mean friendship or falling in love. I meant, "I am so happy to have a mom like you. You are my best friend. I love you!"

well in that movie salena if that's what it's called, the white rose meant death.

To; 14 i would have a blue rose for grandfather and a pink one for grandmother just an idea. Sorry for your loss.

ahh, now i understand. But i agree, what does the color white mean if it's a rose?

I think guessing the feelings of a sender based on color of roses is a thing of past.

i always thought white roses meant death.

I am approaching my son's second anniversary death. Is a specific color of flower that symbolizes this?

black roses may mean death but i love them. i don't know, but i think they're cool. (:

I am planning my son's wedding and In memory of his grandpa (death of 1 year) and grandma (death of 10 years)I would like to place a rose at their seat was wondering what color would mean miss you or something of that sort (don't think i would want to use black). thank you.

i thought pink roses symbolized joy.

i was told black meant eternal love that can pass even through death...

How about if you want to say sorry and get back?

What ever you do, you do not want to move too fast. Take your time. To answer your question, create her a card and get her one two three roses. The colors should that would probably be best for you would be: Yellow with a red tip, Peach, and maybe Coral. These colors mean Yellow with red tip is = Friendship, Falling in Love, Peach = Appreciation, Closing the deal, Let's get together, Sincerity, Gratitude and the Coral = Desire. I hope that this helps you out!!! DEE320

I met a girl, her family and friends tell me she likes me, but she hasn't told me so. I want to get her roses for Valentines day. What should I get her?

what other different colors do roses come in and what are the meanings of them? Like blue for instance... i went to the rose garden that's near the science center i had a field trip for a college class and i saw some blue ones so that got me thinking what does that color mean?

regardless of all the different meanings for the colors of roses, i came to this site with an idea to surprise my daughter during her wedding reception. after reading about all the colors, i think i can now pull off a touching and memorable charge to the new couple by building a colorful bouquet as i explain what each color means then issue a charge to the new couple as i place it in a vase at their table. thanks guys. this should really be something for family and friends to take away with them.
