White Lilies and Roses

White lilies and colourful roses contrast with the greenery. Lilies have a pronounced fragrance, so in small, enclosed rooms they are better used in smaller numbers. Rose colours carry their own meanings and can help express a message for a personal occasion: red roses signify love and passion, white purity and new beginnings, yellow friendship and joy, and pink tenderness and gratitude. Most cut greenery lasts longer in a vase than the flowers themselves.
