Hello Fellow Gardeners,

We all know the meanings of common roses like red (passionate love), white (innocence), and yellow (friendship), however, there are more and more color choices available in roses every year, but what do they mean?

Well I found this nice website called Pro Flowers that explains the meaning of lavender and orange roses! Did you know that lavender roses mean “enchantment, majesty, (and my personal favorite) love at first sight!” How romantic! I would really enjoy receiving a bouquet of those now or even growing them myself! Orange roses mean “desire, enthusiasm, and passion!” There is lots more interesting information included in these articles as well, so check them out! And if you end up with an uncontrollable desire to actually grow some lovely lavender or orange roses (like moi!), I did find a few that will work out for cold climates!
