Where Trust Is Money

Most people understand that flowers are ornamental, make great gifts, and can perfume any setting. However, many do not realize that flowers have a language of their own. Of all flowers, roses are probably the most popular and can say the most. One reason is that they are offered in many appealing colors which can be arranged to make almost any statement. There are roses to fit almost any price range, taste, or occasion. As if that were not a good enough reason to send them, the Internet has made ordering simple and convenient.

However, as time rolls goes on, there are many messages to send via a simple flower. For instance on Valentines Day a dozen roses can send a message “Will you be mine?” this is traditional for the holiday. Yet on your anniversary, you might choose sprawling magnificent romantic bouquets containing 99 rose buds that will be sure to say, “I will love you for as long as I live”. Tradition dictates using varied colors to get your message across to your loved one, such as, three dozen orange roses to tell someone you will always remember the passion, and the desire, they bring out in you. Even the men in our lives can appreciate a fine arrangement of the velvety fragrant pleasure of the long stemmed roses delivered to him on a special day.

Always remember though, when you receive your flowers, a person does not always mean to convey anything except they were thinking of you. Reading meaning into a gift, while fun, can be a disaster if you think they are sorry for something they have not done. You could be interpreting something into your bouquet that was not meant to be conveyed by the giver. Men especially might not be aware of the meaning behind the roses he sent, so just assume for your sanity, that he just meant to say “I Love You” and nothing else. Unless he really does owe you an apology, be gracious and believe it. All is well that ends well. Or, ends with a beautiful bouquet of the luscious sweet fragrance of the legendary Red Roses of Love.
