The meaning of red roses:

Rosebuds symbolises beauty, youth and a heart innocent of love. The message is, "You are young and beautiful, pure and lovely".

Roses symbolize sincere love, respect, courage and passion.

A single rose in full bloom signifies simplicity, the message is "I Love You!"

Rose leaves are symbols of hope.
