Symbolic meaning of orange roses

Orange is a particularly warm and cosy colour – so it is no wonder that the orange rose represents precisely these qualities. Thus, orange roses symbolise happiness and enthusiasm, as well as warmth and security, which is why they are ideal for thanking your partner for a fulfilling, happy relationship. There are also slight differences between the individual colour variations: the more intense the apricot shade, the more intense the feelings towards the partner. If, on the other hand, the rose is more in the peachy range, it expresses great gratitude.
