Sympathy roses convey the deepest respect for those passed away. The calm, peaceful serenity of white roses are unmatched, making them the traditional flower of choice for funerals, tributes, monuments, and chapel ceremonies for decades.
Red roses traditionally convey love over everything else, but when gifted in sympathy, they are well received. ProFlowers offers several bouquets of white and red sympathy roses for use before or after the funeral services. We offer Red Spray Roses, Premium Elegance White Roses, Always and Forever Mixed Roses, and One Dozen Long Stemmed White Roses – perhaps the purest bouquet we offer. ProFlowers has other types of
sympathy flowers if you can't find roses that you like.
White roses are also closely associated with weddings and have a strong tradition as a symbolof lasting love. They’ve been associated most strongly with innocence, although some believe that white roses symbolize secrecy, rebirth, remembrance, and respect - many of which are appropriate when remembering those passed. It should be noted that sending any type of roses for sympathy purposes is acceptable – especially if the deceased or the person grieving is known to have a special preference or history with a certain type of rose. Regardless – you’ll be sending a timeless gift – one that has been revered, rare, and respected for centuries.
