Roses come in many colors and varying shades of the common colors. Each of these colors (and often their varying shades or variations) represent something different in a relationship. Flowers, for quite some time in history, had a language all their own. One could send a flower to someone they knew and the flower itself sent a message. This is, in part, the reason that we give flowers to our lovers. The colors and the types of flowers that you give to your sweetheart, your mother, your siblings, or your friends should vary depending on the sentiment you are attempting to express.
