ROSE BOUQUETS

Roses, the timeless beauties of the floral world, boast a history as rich and colourful as their petals. These beloved blooms have graced humanity's story for millennia, dating back to ancient civilisations like the Greeks, Romans, and Egyptians. Revered for their exquisite fragrance and captivating beauty, roses became symbols of love, beauty, and passion, often associated with goddesses like Aphrodite and Venus. Throughout history, roses adorned royal gardens and were cherished in art, poetry, and literature, symbolising love's complexities and beauty's elegance. In the Middle Ages, roses were used for medicinal purposes, while the Renaissance era saw their cultivation diversify, resulting in a spectrum of colours and varieties. Their allure and symbolism persisted through centuries, making roses perennial favourites in gardens, celebrations, and bouquets, embodying love, beauty, and timeless grace in every delicate petal. In the 18th century, the language of flowers, or floriography, emerged, allowing people to communicate sentiments through specific blooms, and roses played a leading role in conveying messages of love and devotion. Over time, various rose species and hybrids were cultivated, enhancing the diversity of colours, sizes, and scents available for bouquets. Today, roses remain an enduring symbol of love and are a timeless centrepiece in bouquets, continuing to captivate hearts with their elegance and romantic associations.
