Roses: The Optimal Choice for Showing Love on a Special Person’s Birthday

Roses are often associated with love and passion, especially when looking at the red and pink variety. However, depending on the context and the colour, roses can have several different meanings. White roses are symbols of purity and condolences; yellow roses are symbols of joy and happiness; purple roses symbolize luxury and royalty. No matter how you paint it, roses are a versatile flower to include in arrangements and bouquets, especially for birthdays! Forest of Flowers has several options when it comes to choosing rose birthday flowers and nearly unlimited capabilities for customization.

Care Tips for Longlasting Blooms

Don’t want your cherished loved one to toss out those blooms too early? Here are some essential care tips to make those beautiful birthday roses last long into the future:

  • Trim the stems at an angle before placing them in room-temperature water. If your bouquet includes plant food, be sure to mix it in thoroughly.
  • Keep your flowers away from direct sunlight, cold drafts, and heating vents; extreme temperatures can shorten their lifespan.
  • Change the water every other day, ensuring the vase is clean and free of fallen leaves or petals that could cause decay.
  • Once your blooms show signs of withering (soft, drooping petals; slimy or peeling stems; etc.) you can actually hang them upsidedown in direct sunlight and away from moisture to dry the roses out. This makes them a longlasting feature for your birthday person.
