My love is like a red, red rose
Red roses are are probably the best selling flower's on Valentine's Day. No other flowers speaks the same volume of one's love and passion as this. A bouquet of a dozen red roses is considered to be the most romantic of all floral arrangements.
There are two legends of how the rose was created. One story, which takes place in ancient Rome, tells of a beautiful maiden name Rhodanthe who was pursued by many zealous suitors. She was forced to take refuge in the temple of the Goddess Diana, but the suitors broke down the temple doors. Diana became very angry and turned Rhodanthe into a rose and her suitors into thorns. In another Greek legend, the rose was created by Chloris, the Greek goddess of flowers.
The Persian custom of "the language of flowers" was brought over to Europe and developed into the art of floriograpghy. The tradition reached its height in Victorian England when every young man and lady knew the specific meaning of each flower so well that they could hold conversations with each other just by exchanging flowers.
You can revive this practice by choosing roses of appropriate colour to convey your feelings.
Red - Love and passion
White -- True love, purity and innocence
Yellow - Friendship amd freedom, celebration and joy. Don't send these if your intentions are romantic and long - lasting
