The Symbolism of Rose Stems and Numbers
If you are into the symbolism of flowers and being precise about what kind of message you send by wearing them here is something that you will find interesting. The number of roses you send is just as signifigigant as their color.
If you send a rose without any thorns the smooth stem is supposed to mean “love at first sight.”
A single rose means love at first sight or it can be an affirmation of an older love as in “I still love you.”
If you give someone two roses each one represents yourself as a couple and your undying love for each other.
Three roses are sent to celebrate a couple’s one month anniversary.
Six roses sent indicate that you are infatuated with someone.
If you send a love ten roses it means that you think the other person is perfect.
If you send a dozen roses you are telling the individual to “be mine.”
Thirteen roses sent are lucky as it means “you are my best friend forever.”
If you owe someone an apology you are supposed to say it with a bundle of fifteen roses.
Twenty roses sent means deep feeling and sincerity.
A bouquet of twenty one roses means devotion and dedication.
Two dozen roses is a declaring of love– “I’m yours.”
Twenty five roses are how you say– “Congratulations.”
Three dozen roses is a floral delivery that tells the other person that you are head over heels in love.
Fifty roses express a love that knows no limits or bounds.
A rose that is sent with many thorns is more sexual in nature because it means you are piercing the heart
Of curse you can also mix color meanings with the number of roses that you are sending to create a very peronsal message of your own. If you want to make sure that the message has to do with romantic love try and keep the roses in the bouquet in the red, pink or orange hues. If it is more impersonal keep the flowers in cooler colors.
Who knew that flowers were so associated with numerology!
