Love is in the air as the calendar turns into February. And rose—a symbol of love is medium to express your love. In Greeks and Romans mythology, a rose is connected with Aphrodite and Venus—goddesses of love. That is why Valentine’s week is kicks-off with Rose Day. While exchanging a rose with your love’s one, you also share your feelings and emotions. It not only might be your girlfriend/boyfriend, but you can also gifted to your friend, parents or anyone who are close to you.


However, each color of rose has its different meaning. My City’s team has listed five different colored roses that symbolize distinct meanings:

Generally, red rose stands for romance which is also medium to proposing your special one.
