What is the Meaning of Orange Roses?

Blending the friendly association of the yellow rose with the romantic implication of the red rose resulted in a much subtler, more intriguing meaning of love emerging from friendship. While the fiery tone indicates passion and intensity, the orange rose is now appropriate for sending any message of enthusiasm—whether it’s one of love, thanks, friendship or congratulations.

The sweet yet intense hue gives this bloom a one-of-a-kind charm. A bouquet of these warm-colored beauties is the perfect gift to show anyone special how ardently you care.
