Peach Rose: A colour of modesty, peach roses are subtle messengers of the first blush of love or appreciation. Like a girl and want to explore more? Let these delicate roses do the talking. (Source: Thinkstock Images)
Flowers are a popular symbol for expressing 'love', or 'like' — depends on the emotion you want to express. Bring in the favourite rose into the picture, and things get really serious. But do they have to? Roses, like other flowers, portray different meanings and sentiments. Take a look. (Source: Thinkstock Images)
Red Rose: This is an unmistakable expression of love. Red roses convey love, longing and desire. (Source: Thinkstock Images)
White Rose: White is the colour of purity, chastity and innocence. These can have two meanings — one is at the beginning of a relationship, which is why white roses are used in weddings, as well as the end. Be careful when you gift your partner a white rose. (Source: Thinkstock Images)
Yellow Rose: An expression of exuberance, yellow roses are friendly — they can also mean too friendly. Give this to a friend to brighten up her day, but be cautious since yellow roses also stand for infidelity. (Source: Thinkstock Images)
Pink Rose: Pink is a graceful colour and can imply that the recipient is full of grace. It also stands for admiration, joy and gratitude. If you're going for the 'like' emotion, then a baby pink bloom is the way to go. (Source: Thinkstock Images)
Orange Rose: While yellow roses are friendly, an orange rose are representative of a much fiercer emotion. These deep-coloured blooms signify passion and energy. If intense desire is what you feel, opt for an orange rose — couple them with red, and you've got a strong message blooming across. (Source: Thinkstock Images)

Alexandra Rose Day
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Alexandra Rose Day (a variable date in June)[discuss] is a charitable fund raising event held in the United Kingdom since 1912 by Alexandra Rose Charities. It was first launched on the 50th anniversary of the arrival of Queen Alexandra, the consort of King Edward VII, from her native Denmark to the UK.[1] The Queen requested that the anniversary be marked by the sale of roses in London to raise funds for her favorite charities.

The arrival of the Princess in England for the wedding in 1863, was a never-to-be-forgotten occasion. This was attributed to the then recent increase in the railway network, the lack of royal occasions in preceding years and the new process of photography, which had made it possible for pictures of the Princess to be sold in shops prior to the arrival. The City of London spent £40,000 on decorations and illuminations, and the result was a tumultuous reception for the bride.
Years passed and the 50th anniversary of the Princess’s arrival in London and her wedding to the late King Edward VII came. The Dowager Queen’s army of admirers insisted that the day of her arrival should be celebrated in a special way. A processional drive through the streets of London seemed an obvious choice, but Alexandra wanted an occasion that would help the sick and needy. She developed an idea which would benefit the funds of London hospitals through the sale of artificial wild roses, which were to be made by people with disabilities.
The day was to be called "Alexandra Rose Day," and the initial drive swept Londoners off their feet. The first event raised £32,000 (the equivalent of almost £2 million in 2002 money). The funds raised were a great benefit to hospitals, and the annual drive became an institution, one of the chief attractions of London’s summer, with Alexandra the star. By 1920, £775,000 for London hospitals had been raised.
Queen Alexandra’s Rose Day continued to be celebrated even after her death in 1925. Rare Autochrome colour photos exist of women selling paper roses with poster billboards and decorated collecting cans in Seaford, East Sussex on the 'Seventeenth Celebration Alexandra Day in memory of H.M Queen Alexandra Saturday June 16th 1928.'[2]
After a period of raising money for charities that do not normally get national attention for fundraising, today Alexandra Rose Charities is tackling food poverty in London, most notably through providing vouchers for disadvantaged families to buy fresh fruit and vegetables.
The Prime Minister traditionally launches the day by being the first to buy a rose.
Princess Alexandra, The Honourable Lady Ogilvy, Queen Alexandra's great granddaughter, is the current President of Alexandra Rose Day.[3]
