As Valentine's Day Roses carry the fragrance of our heart and imagination of our minds, delivery of roses has in fact become the standard norm on the Valentine's Day - the day devoted to the love birds.

The tradition of giving flowers especially roses on Valentine's Day first came about in the late seventeenth century. Roses became the flower of choice because it was reputed to be the favourite flower of the goddess Venus - the goddess of Love and beauty.

Each Valentine rose has its own significance. Giving the right Valentine flower to your sweetheart on Valentine's Day is very important. The Valentine rose colour will say all that you have never expressed.

Red, pink and white roses are the most popular. A red rose is considered to be a universal symbol of beauty and love; they have always been associated with strong feelings of love and romance.

Some have even called the rose the ‘angel's artwork' because of its ability to feed our souls with its delicate beauty. Roses are said to have the ability of uplifting anybody's mood and they are defiantly one of nature's best and most beautiful creations.

Traditionally a Valentine Rose is a singular long-stemmed red rose. This is referred to as the ‘signature rose'.

There are many ways how to present your roses - whether singular or in a bunch and each way has a different meaning:

• A bunch of red roses say ‘I Love You', they also stand for respect and courage;

• Red and White rose's together or white roses with red edges, signify unity;

• Two red roses taped or wired together to form a sign stem indicate an engagement or upcoming marriage;

• Red roses mean ‘pure and lovely';

• A pink rose represents happiness.
