| Giving roses to someone for a special occasion - or for no real
occasion at all - is a tradition that people have been doing for
centuries. Though the rose is the universal symbol for love, it is by
no means restricted to expressing romantic love. Since we've already
attached particular meanings to certain colors. (bright colors for
instance, convey happiness where as darker shades connote deeper, more
intense emotions), different flower colors elicit specific emotions
from us almost automatically.
Instead of sending someone a rose bouquet made up of just one color,
why not choose a rose combination? Not only are they more aesthetically
pleasing; the color combinations will also heighten whatever the
recipient feels upon seeing the flower bouquet before your eyes. Think
of the individual rose as a word, and the bouquet as your entire
message to her. Here are some rose color combinations you might want to
consider with respect to the emotions they might ignite.
Love and Romance:
Nothing says "I love you!" louder than the classic red and white rose
combination. We already know that red roses stand for passionate love,
but the addition of the white rose to the bouquet denotes a pure heart
and nothing but good intentions.
Diva is a quirky rose combination that speaks of passionate love
clearer than words ever could. The mixture of orange and red roses
resembles the flames of passion that can engulf a person and put him
into a delirious fever that only requited love can cure.
A more reserved way of showing romantic interest is by choosing Berry,
a delightful combination of pink and red roses that convey elegance,
admiration, and deep feelings for someone.
Thinking of You:
For your mom's birthday or Mother's day, send her the Pastel flower
arrangement, a delicate combination of white and peach flowers. Its
subtle shades elicit happiness and joy, and will probably match her
living room furniture too! The refreshing white and yellows of the
Sunrise combination also brings out sunny, cheerful emotions of warmth.
Cheer up:
For a friend who's been going through a rough patch or who has been
stuck in the hospital for days, nothing less than a colorful
arrangement will do the trick of cheering him or her up. Remind your
friend that life is beautiful by sending Blush, an enchanting blend of
large coral pink and white rose. To brighten up those drab hospital
rooms, try Royale, a visually-stunning bouquet of lavender and bright
yellow roses, or the Dusk combination's cheerful warmth of oranges and
peach tones.
Besides from having so many meanings, multi-colored rose combinations
are also visually stunning. This makes your message come across
beautifully. So the next time you need to send roses, send her favorite
rose combinations and see the difference! |
