What does the color and number of donated flowers mean?

Few people know that there is a language of flowers . Most young people, giving flowers to their beloved girl, do not even know what a certain color and the number of roses given mean.

Color, as a rule, means some feelings that cannot be measured mathematically:

Red flowers are a symbol of fiery love. A gift in the form of such flowers speaks of warm and passionate feelings for your partner. Young people give their girls red roses. There's no need to explain why.
White color symbolizes innocence and purity. White roses should be given as a sign of respect and recognition. In the language of flowers it means pure and bright love.
As you know, pink is a combination of white and red. In the language of flowers, everything happens exactly the same. Gifted pink roses are a symbol that a person wants to enter into a romantic relationship with you and hints at ardent passion, as he is embarrassed to say directly.
Orange roses carry positive energy. In the language of flowers it means best wishes. They can be given to both women and men.
Tea rose is associated with separation. Timid young men who cannot directly tell the girl about the end of the relationship give such flowers. They do this with the hope that the girl will understand everything herself and will not pester her with questions about the reasons for the separation. You should not give such a flower to a person towards whom you have serious intentions.
Black roses are a sign of sadness. The exception is a bouquet of 9 pieces for a man. This will be a symbol of respect and admiration for his masculine qualities.
The remaining shades are quite rare and appeared in the world not so long ago. Each of them means something different, but they have one thing in common - a certain mystery. In any case, if you were given blue or yellow roses, this does not mean that there is some kind of secret. Most likely, they wanted to give you an original gift.
