Red: the symbol of pure love
White: symbolize purity or new beginnings
Yellow: everlasting friendship (old or new friends)
Orange: enthusiasm and desire; a burning love
Purple or Lavender: love at first sight, passion, luxury, royalty
Pink: admiration, appreciation, joy, thanks (any shade of pink)
Peach: sincerity and gratitude
This list leaves out the newest colors of rose - green - available from pale to lime green. I wonder what the meaning of these will be?
So, tell me: what's your favorite shade of rose?

Purple or lavender. Thanks for the explanation of what that means there. I went with my immediate gut feeling.
I love peach colored roses.I think they are beautiful.
About the new green ones. Perhaps they reflect innocence. Don't we say someone who has no experience is green?
OR maybe green means envy. We also declare that someone is green eyed with jealousy.
Take your pick. I love all roses;they are one of nature's most precious gifts.
Interesting, my favourite colour is peach.
What with the Internet/Twitter/Facebook/email, we no longer have to say it with flowers.
I really think that all colors/combinations of roses are beautiful, no matter what they are supposed to mean.

Green roses -- does that have to do with being a good steward of the Earth?
I like yellow roses and white roses that aren't stark white and rose-colored roses. Well, actually I have some of all colors except green.
I love the shades of orange and the reds that are almost brown (hot cocoa) and those with splashes of red and orange (citrus splash). My least favorite roses are white.
Thanks!!! I love roses no matter what they mean!
My favourite colour of rose is any one that is slightly off from the typical ones, like an ivory white, or creamy yellow, or burgundy. I don't know about green roses. I've seen blue ones too. I prefer the more familiar warm colours.
I love all roses but, like Nancy and LL Cool Joe, my favorite is peach.
I think it's hard to beat a perfect pure white rose but they are all beautiful.
I love them all but red and pinks the most. I'm enjoying the knock out roses (that I was mistakenly calling kick ass roses) that I planted in last year. They are supposed to bloom from spring to fall.
Peach is my favorite but I always gave my step mom yellow for she was also a friend.
It has always been Lavender! And I think the meanings of the Rose Colors is very very interesting....There are others that I adore, but deep down, when push comes to shove--it is STILL Lavender! (lol)
I love roses....of any color. I knew a couple of these, but it was interesting to see what they all mean. Thanks Judy....
My favourite is the pale pink of New Dawn and it is as old as me.
