WHO KNEW? ROSES HAVE A RANK FOR VALENTINES DAY
VALENTINE’S DAY: What the Number of Roses You Get Means
Things have changed a lot over the years, but there was a time when getting flowers meant more than it does now. The kind of flowers, the color and even the number all expressed something significant to the person who received them.
As Valentine’s Day approaches, and the sale of roses goes through the roof, it’s fun to look at what the number of flowers you get actually means. Maybe your Valentine is intentionally or unintentionally trying to tell you something …
1 rose: In the beginning of a relationship it means love at first sight. After years together it means you’re still the one.
2 roses: It means mutual love and affection
3 roses: Simply means “I love you” – the three important little words
6 roses: Infatuation and lust
9 roses: Means eternal love.
10 roses: The perfect 10 means you are perfect for me.
12 roses: The traditional number. It simply means “Be Mine!”
13 roses: Has varied meanings. Some sources say it means friends forever, and others say it means you have a secret admirer.
15 roses: Uh oh … 15 means I’m sorry …
24 roses: If a dozen is “Be mine,” two dozen is “I’m yours!”
36 roses: Three dozen roses means money is no object and I’m head over heels in love!
50 or more: Traditionally it means my love knows no bounds … but it could also mean your guy is a little showy. (PopSugar)
