Valentine’s Day Special: Don’t gift roses to your valentine, without knowing its meaning & significance

New Delhi: To say you love someone is a vast expression. Love isn’t one emotion but rather an amalgamation of many. Friendship, admiration, trust, devotion, there are infinite shades of love.

Therefore, handing out only red roses on Valentine’s day is so cliche when there are a number of beautiful hues to celebrate your love for your valentine. Rose, as a flower is the embodiment of love but did you know that each color has a unique meaning attached to it?

Also, dear singles, don’t beat yourself up this Valentine’s day if you don’t have someone special by your arm. Red might not be the perfect pick for you this year but you can make your 14th February memorable by gifting different color roses to your cherished one

1. Red Rose

The classic! It needs so explanation. Red roses are a must for couples as they denote deep romantic feelings and passion. If you want to convey love, attraction, and lust then this is the perfect rose to gift your significant other.

However, be careful while choosing the red rose if you aren’t very sure of the reciprocation of feelings.

2. Yellow Rose

This one is best for those who want to celebrate 14th February as a tribute to their friends. A yellow rose conveys delight and happiness which only a good friend can bring into your life.

Remember, Valentine’s Day is the celebration of love, but love is much more than mere romantic affection. So, pick out the warmest and brightest yellow rose for your best friend.

3. Pink Rose

Don’t confuse pink roses for romantic love. In contrast to the passionate fiery red rose, the pink rose symbolizes admiration and gratitude.

The graceful pink rose can be a perfect one for your mom and dad. It’s not every day that you get a chance to tell your parents how grateful you feel for their unconditional love. So, if you see a pink rose this Valentine’s Day, pick it up for your parents without any second thought.

4. White Rose

A white rose is the most versatile flower. Although the actual meaning attached to it is peace, serenity, and innocence, white roses have evolved to pomp up any occasion.

A white rose is ideally gifted to a new bride, young children, and elderly people. However, with changing times you can hand one out to your romantic partner as well to reminisce about the feeling of young love.

Hence, White roses are the safest bet, which can be gifted in any relationship without causing any offense.

5. Orange Rose

Orange roses are used more in decor than in the traditional practice of exchanging flowers. However, that doesn’t undermine the meaning it holds.

Being somewhere in the middle of red and pink, an orange rose can hint at blossoming love in a close friendship. So, if you feel like confessing your love to someone but don’t want the sour the friendship, say it with an orange rose.
