Rose bouquets – how to choose?

Roses are one of the most popular flowers to give as gifts. It is no coincidence that they occupy a special place. They have been companions to humanity for thousands of years, celebrated by poets, inspiring artists, and serving as silent messengers of feelings. The secret of their magic lies not only in their exquisite beauty but also in the subtle language they «speak». The color of a rose can express what is difficult to say aloud — from tender friendship to passionate love, from deep respect to sincere gratitude.

Rose bouquets are not just flowers. They are living messages that speak where words may not be enough. Many consider roses to be a banal gift, but this is a misconception of people who do not understand the depth of the symbolism of these amazing flowers. Each rose has a special meaning; each shade of petal tells its own story.

Now, the florists at Bordo Flowers will share with you the secrets of roses — what they mean and which ones to choose for a particular occasion.
