The meaning of roses

The rose has long been a symbol of love, beauty, and affection. And each color rose holds a different meaning. A red rose means ‘I love you,’ and is a sign of romance; pink represents happiness and admiration; a white rose symbolizes innocence and purity; orange means desire and excitement; yellow represents cheer and happiness, although some folklore considered it to mean jealousy.  Red and white roses paired together have come to symbolize unity.

 

There's a reason roses feel timeless and iconic. Fossil evidence in the form of rose leaves suggests that plants in the rose family date back at least 35 million years. How about that for a history lesson?!

Cheers to the official start of summer and a great month ahead!
