Any color rose, just one given to someone for any occasion means that person is the one true love in your life. One rose singles out that person to be your own and no one else. Attach it to a couple of ferns. And you can wrap it in color tissue paper that's the color of the Rose. Flower shops can help you.

I believe a number of roses come in a red coloration.  Here's what wikipedia.org says.\n\n"There is no single system of classification for garden roses. In general, however, roses are placed in one of three main groups:\n\n    * Wild Roses - The wild roses includes the species listed above and some of their hybrids.\n    * Old Garden Roses - Most old garden roses are classified into one of the following (ordered by approximate age - oldest first):\n          o Alba - Literally "white roses", derived from R. arvensis and the closely allied R. alba. These are some of the oldest garden roses, probably brought to Britain by the Romans. Once-flowering. Examples: 'Semi-plena', 'White Rose of York'.\n          o Gallica - The Gallica roses have been developed from R. gallica which is a native of central and southern Europe. They flower once in the summer. Examples: 'Cardinal de Richelieu', 'Charles de Mills', 'Rosa Mundi' (R. gallica versicolor).\n          o Damask - Robert de Brie is given credit for bringing them from Persia to Europe sometime between 1254 and 1276. Summer Damasks (crosses between Gallica roses and R. phoenicea) bloom once in summer. Autumn Damasks (Gallicas crossed with R. moschata) bloom later, in the autumn. Examples: 'Ispahan', 'Madame Hardy'.\n          o Centifolia (or Provence) - These roses, raised in the seventeenth century in the Netherlands, are named for their "one hundred" petals. Once-flowering. Examples: 'Centifolia', 'Paul Ricault'.\n          o Moss - Closely related to the centifolias, these have a mossy excrescence on the stems and sepals. Once-flowering. Example: 'Comtesse de Murinais', 'Old Pink Moss'.\n          o China - The China roses brought with them an amazing ability to bloom repeatedly throughout the summer and into late autumn. Four china roses ('Slater's Crimson China', 1792; 'Parsons' Pink China', 1793; 'Hume's Blush China', 1809; and 'Parks' Yellow Tea Scented China', 1824) were brought to Europe in the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries which brought about the creation of the repeat flowering old garden roses and later the modern garden roses. Examples: 'Old Blush China', 'Mutabilis'.\n          o Portland - These are named after the Duchess of Portland who received (from Italy in 1800) a rose then known as R. paestana or 'Scarlet Four Seasons' Rose' (now known simply as 'The Portland Rose'). This group was developed from that rose. Repeat-flowering. Example: 'James Veitch', 'Rose de Rescht', 'The Portland Rose'.\n          o Bourbon - They originated on l'Île de Bourbon (now called Réunion). Probably the result of a cross between the Autumn Damask and the 'Old Blush China'. Introduced in France in 1823. Repeat-flowering. Examples: 'Louise Odier', 'Mme. Pierre Oger', 'Zéphirine Drouhin'.\n          o Hybrid Perpetual - The dominant class of roses in Victorian England, they were derived to a great extent from the Bourbons. Repeat-flowering. Examples: 'Ferdinand Pichard', 'Reine Des Violettes'.\n          o Tea - The result of crossing two of the original China Roses ('Hume's Blush China' and 'Parks' Yellow Tea Scented China') with various Bourbons and Noisette roses. Somewhat more tender than other old garden roses (most likely because of R. gigantea in the ancestry of the Parks rose), teas are repeat-flowering roses although their fragrance is not always a tea scent. Example: 'Lady Hillingdon'.\n          o Bermuda "Mystery" Roses - A group of several dozen "found" roses that have been grown in Bermuda for at least a century. The roses have significant value and interest for those growing roses in tropical and semi-tropical regions, since they are

My dear friend, \nI learned what the color and relationship meaning of roses meant a long time ago. I would surely think you could look these up today, easily via the internet or to call a local flouriest.\nI recommend that you buy two of each of the flowers that you learn about, put them all together, and present to your loving parents. Include a card that explains the meaning of each pair of colors on a card and just let them absorb. After a weekend of privacy, they will surely be every so glad to see you and discuss all that happened. Hmmm, want to fill us in? God Bless you, such a sweet and thoughtful heart.

If you want to show your loved one that they are the love of your life, red roses are the ones to choose. Giving a single red rose to someone is a simple way to say “I love you”. \nRed for the color of the blood in your veins, and in your heart, where love resides.

When I visited the Eden Project in Cornwall, I was interested to see carrier bags or plastic bags used as planters. Most people are too poor for "real" pots.\n\nYears ago I also saw a container garden in Combe Martin, Devon. The containers were toilets, urinals, bedpans and the like. Very effective and whimsical.\n\nGarden containers can be decorative and soften space. They also provide for small kitchen gardens.

I personally think that roses are over done and that by using flowers that people are no accustom to can make a big splash.  Try Gerber Daisies they came in just about every color and size you could ever want.  And they are just gorgeous!  And they make a very pretty Bridal Bouquet it you like the perfect round ones.

something that is particular to your relationship.. i remember every guy that gave me a rose..but i cant remember who gave me which objects cluttering my house.  i can still quote you some love letters..and i still have the rings.  so, i guess a ring and a rose, with a love poem is the best combination!
