Red Roses say, "I love you." and are the ultimate symbol of romance and enduring passion. Florists usually can't keep up with the Valentines Day demand for red roses, which makes them especially expensive in February.

Pale Pink Roses imply grace, gentleness, and joy;  Light pink roses express a sense of fun, happiness, and whimsy;  Deep pink roses say, "Thank you.";  Lilac roses indicate the sender has fallen in love at first sight with the recipient and is enchanted. Seeing that he meaning of lilac roses isn’t as widely-known as the meaning of red roses, for instance, make sure you add a card with the roses.
