Red rose
The red rose is lucky. People seem to find it special. Special in the name of love. Love must be painful have you noticed the thorns roses have? I wonder why the red rose is the one people like most? What is wrong with pink, yellow, black, or white? Red might stand for love but it's the color of blood and red stands for aggression if we may believe the color experts. I am not really a fan of roses and not flattered by a bunch of flowers. It's watching something in pain that dies fast because you cut it. Scientists say plants do feel pain (this makes eating plants/vegetables painful). **My roses are outside.** I bought some sticks and they grew into bushes taller than me. At least the pink and red ones did. I believe the wolves molested two others as they were still a stick. My white rose climbs upon the cage once build for my owl and it's nice but more vulnerable for insects. The rosebuds are more pink than white and the flower dies fast. Might be it's not the right so or it needs more care. The yellow rose... I hoped it would grow fast but the first years it looked more dead as alive. This year it looks a bit better. Who knows one day it will grow all over the fence and brighten up the place.

If you don't want to eat vegetables for the pain they may feel, consider that fruit is grown to be eaten - so the seeds are spread. They are beautiful and tasty just for the purpose of attracting eaters. If you attribute emotions to plants, one cannot but believe that fruits want to be eaten.
I still eat vegetables but since I read it it's in my mind and I do wonder why we do not care about plants but do about animals. There was a time they said animals do not feel pain too. Fruit is a good one. My tree has cherries now. ππ
Hmm, keep it up
I love red rose. I also have a rose plant in my house. Though it is not red, it is pink in color. My father bought it and he took care of it. Now it gives flower once a week.
Your father did a good job. If it has flowers it feels home with you. My pink roses do better too but because it's a different breed?
I love red but I don't have any flower in my home..
Neither have I and that doesn't matter. I believe flowers should stay in nature. Inside they die too fast.
You did not grew a black rose? π€ I believe the black rose will be higher than the yellow rose if you grew one. But still they harmonize so beautifully. Like destruction and creation.
I never found one where I live. If so count on it I try to buy it.
Yah! Roses are red, violets are blue! This is a typical hip hop song which I cherish a lot.
Can you sing it? Which artist? If you ask me it's a very old poem already written over 50 years ago in poetry albums children gave to their family and teachers and schoolmates to leave a message behind for later.
I Don't think so. The color red is the favourite choice of many. The colour of blood is also red. That may be the reason why red roses are preferred over all other roses. And love can be expressed in flowers of any color. It's a matter that the person I'm giving it Just love that colour. Personally white roses are the most favourite of mine.
That is a very smart remark but if that person foes not like roses but chocolate instead... Chocolate makes happy for sure. ππ
I love red rose and i like also your article. Rose is a symbole of love. Rose has many colour but i like red rose.
Why is red the symbol of love? I wonder about that. Red as blood or as anger and all those stinging thorns. π€
I think it's because red blood mean that the blood have plenty of oxygen. Plenty of oxygen mean the person is alive and healthy. Maybe to show that love is alive?
I love flowers too but I don't have the time to take care of them so the caring part is taken care by my husband. He doesn't like giving me flowers but when he feels like giving, he'll give me a planted one and he said this will last longer so he won't have to buy it frequently. Some of our flowers dies and some survive. He said that the dead one live inside the survive one as a fertilizer.
