Meaning of Red Roses
Red roses are most often given as a sign of romantic love. They continue to be a prominent choice for anniversary flowers and Valentine’s Day arrangements. The flowers denote love, romance, passion, devotion, admiration, and respect. Red roses are usually arranged by the dozen, and baby’s breath and greenery complete the timeless design. The color red shows strength and power, and can also be associated with masculinity. It is a patriotic color, especially when paired with blue and white accents. Red roses are often used in memorial arrangements for military veterans. A wrapped bouquet of red roses can be congratulatory when given to a performer.
Although they are tried and true, red rose arrangements do not have to be one size fits all; there are many unique ways to arrange the blooms. For example, red roses clustered together in a low cube or cylinder vase lined with a leaf wrap creates an elegant and modern look that is perfect for a centerpiece or in a space with minimalist décor. Red roses arranged in a vintage tin with flowing greenery like seeded eucalyptus invokes a feeling of timeless love from a bygone era. A single red rose with accent flowers arranged in a bud vase can serve as a sign of remembrance for a lost loved one.
Meaning of the color Red
It is easy to identify red as the color of love—just look at all the red hearts on Valentine’s Day gifts. But did you know that the color red also has other meanings? Because red is the color of fire and blood, it can sometimes be a symbol of war and strength. It is a symbol of danger when used in stoplights, stop signs, and warning signs. Advertisers use red to encourage consumers to make quick decisions and “buy now.” The hue is used to promote high energy products like cars, sports drinks, and games.
Dorothy’s ruby red slippers in the Wizard of Oz were one of the earliest red symbols in movies. The original slippers were supposed to be silver, but red simply popped in this Technicolor film. Since then, there have been many instances of filmmakers using the color. In fact, directors M. Night Shyamalan and Martin Scorsese are known for focusing on the shade. Both directors use red to foreshadow danger or violence in such movies as The Village, The Sixth Sense, and The Departed. Similarly, red was a prominent color in the movie Schindler’s List. The eponymous character sees a young girl in a red coat (the only object of color in the black and white movie) as a sign of the horrors of the Holocaust. The red coat symbolizes the red flag the Jews waved at Allied Powers as a cry for help.
