Since the 18th century roses have been cultivated for their beauty. Whether grown on a garden trellis, as a flowering shrub or to be cut and placed in vases in the home, red roses are decidedly the most popular and sought after color choice. Red roses have long been a symbol of love, passion and courage. Popular given for occasions such as Valentine’s Day, Anniversaries and birthdays an artfully designed arrangement or a bouquet of a dozen red roses is a simple, elegant declaration of love and affection.
The most popular red rose varieties today are roses in the Modern classification. Each type of rose is as beautiful as it is unique. The La Sevillana is a cluster rose. Lightly scented with bright red clustered blooms this rose is a good choice for flower beds, the shrub growing to about seven feet in height.
Other varieties of red roses include the Mister Lincoln rose, a modern hybrid tea rose with dark red blooms. Extremely fragrant this type of red rose is an excellent choice for cutting and placing in vases throughout the home. The Grand Hotel rose is a climbing rose with large red blooms. A bouquet of this red rose looks lovely in a low arrangement or in a glass bowl. The Red Coat rose is an English rose. With a single bright red blossom with a yellow stamen this rose is wonderful as a hedge. Cut a bouquet of these red roses and float them in a shallow clear glass dish for a lovely centerpiece.
When it comes to giving red roses to friends and loved ones probably the most recognized rose is the Chrysler Imperial rose. Very popular with a long tear dropped shaped bud that blooms into a large multi-petaled flower it is the quintessential picture of a red rose. The Chrysler Imperial makes an excellent choice as a garden rose bush or as a tree rose. Displayed as a perfect dozen red roses in a crystal vase or as a single red rose in a sterling chalice is the ideal way to exhibit the beauty of this flower.
Given as a dozen red roses or a single perfect bloom, red roses are the ideal way to express our feelings to people we love and cherish. Grown in the garden and brought inside to enjoy the beauty and fragrance in the home, red roses add a simple yet elegant touch to any style of decor.
