Meaning Of Coral Roses

The message of the coral rose is a step down from the red rose's message of "I love you." The coral rose could be called the rose of flirting, since it symbolizes interest in someone without necessarily a commitment.

Coral roses are not as intense as red roses, so they don't indicate the same intensity of feeling. They are a way to say, "You've got my attention."

Coral roses can also indicate desire and passion. In some ways, they are just as romantic as red roses.

Coral roses are a wonderful gift for a first date, since they express enthusiasm without going overboard.

Send coral roses to kick things up a notch. The coral rose is literally a mix of red and yellow, so its meaning rests between "I love you" and "you are my friend."
