Red Roses FAQs

What is the Meaning of a Red Rose?

Red roses convey deep emotions of love, passion, and desire. A red rose bouquet is a simple yet elegant way to say, "I Love You." It is common to give or receive a bouquet of 12 red roses which are not only fragrant, but are a grand gesture of love, whether it is your first date or your 60th wedding anniversary. Because of the connotation of romantic roses, red blooms are frequently delivered on Valentine's Day for a wife or girlfriend, sometimes accompanied by other gifts.

If you're celebrating a milestone year as a married couple, anniversary roses are sure to please. An unexpected red rose delivery is a great way to make amends after a misunderstanding, but many occasions are ideal for sending these classic blooms.

How Many Red Roses Should You Send?

As if selecting a specific kind of flower and color weren't enough to express your feelings, the quantity of roses you send has its own special meaning.

• 1 red rose – a simple statement of "I love you"

• 2 red roses – an impending engagement or marriage

• 3 red roses – a traditional one-month anniversary bouquet

• 4 red roses – symbolizes that you are inseparable

• 6 red roses – represent infatuation and says, "I want to be yours forever"

• 10 red roses – the recipient knows that their love is the "perfect 10"

• 12 red roses – often given on the eve of a marriage, the number 12 means "you are mine"

• 24 red roses – two dozen red beauties say, “you are in my thoughts 24 hours a day”

Do Red Roses Always Say, "I Love You?"

A gift box of long-stemmed red roses makes a huge impact. But do red roses always mean love? Not necessarily. Since medieval times, red roses have been used to express many other sentiments, including faith, beauty, devotion, honor, and eternity.

Today, red roses are most often associated with affection, romance, and undying love. If you're sending a bouquet to your mother, sister, or beloved wife, you have come to the right place. Shop all roses, and – if you need them in a hurry – look for bouquets that qualify for same day flower delivery. We partner with experienced florists all over the country, who will carefully arrange your gift and hand-deliver the red rose bouquet right to the recipient's door.
