The Red Rose is the national symbol of England, ever since the House of Lancaster, who adopted the rose as their emblem, defeated the House of York way back in 1487. The Lion stems from the English coat of arms. I guess both factions wanted to adopt a national recognisable symbol for their sport.

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.

They're pretty and show that the guy was thinking of you. Guys get extra points for picking something original - a dozen red roses has been overdone. Get something colorful and not so common.

Sounds beautiful.  My understanding is that red roses symbolize love (of course) and white is a symbol for purity.  Maybe he really respects you.
