Representing, humility, purity and innocence, the white rose - often referred to as the bridal rose!

Yellow roses:
Represents friendship, joy and caring. - warmth, gladness and affection.

Pink roses:
Symbolizing gentility, femininity, elegance and refinement, the pink rose also carries additional meanings depending on its hue. A deep pink conveys gratitude and appreciation, while pale shades, grace and gentleness, admiration and happiness.

Orange roses:
