We all know that flowers have meaning.

Carnations represent a mother's love.

Three red roses mean those three precious words. I love you. Six red roses mean I want to be yours.

Ten red roses represent that the one receiving the flowers is perfection, a perfect 10.

Some say it represents the phrase, I love you very much.

Some argue that five roses are special because it implies that the person receiving the

flowers is the sixth rose that completes the bouquet. Or there might be some special significance

that only the sender and the receiver know. I mentioned five because that is what the person
