Orange

Orange roses havent been around for all that long really. They were created towards the end of the 1800s in Europe, when there were new advancements in hybridization, and the red roses could be crossed with the recently discovered wild yellow roses found growing in the Middle East.

Orange is a colour that sparks the imagination and reminding us of the glow of sunrise. It is the perfect colour for new beginings and great for when you wish to transition out of the friend zone into relationship territory (though be careful, not everyone will get the subcontext). They hint at passion and fire with their warming tones.

They are a colour for new beginnings and when not given in a romantic context like Valentines Day, they are great for situations of pride and fresh starts, such as a new home or job. They are also a great choice for the birth of a baby.
