Red Roses: The Unabashed Grandmasters of Love and Passion

If these petals could talk, they'd probably quote Shakespeare, attempting to woo with lines like, "Roses are red, violets are blue, I'm a symbol of love, and you're my boo."

It's as if the petals themselves carry the weight of a thousand apologies. 

Yellow Roses: The Awkward Messengers of Friendship (or Jealousy)?

Pink Roses: The Confusing Carousel of Emotions

Pink roses. Are they a symbol of gratitude? Or admiration? Or perhaps sympathy? According to the confusing guidebook of rose colors, pink roses have donned multiple hats, and they're spinning on a merry-go-round of emotions. In case you're feeling a little all over the place (grateful, sympathetic, and admiring), gift someone a pink rose and let them figure it out.

Orange Roses: The Fruity Fusion of Desire and Fascination

Enter the orange roses, which are a cocktail of desire and fascination.

If you're fascinated by someone's existence and can't help but desire a slice of their time, hand them an orange rose. 

Purple Roses: The Enigmatic Conduits of Love at First Sight

Ah, purple roses, the mysterious enigmas of the garden. According to the mystical book of rose meanings, these petals represent love at first sight.
