What are eternal roses?

Eternal roses, also known as preserved roses, are natural flowers that have undergone an innovative preservation process to maintain their freshness, texture, and beauty for a long period of time, without the need for water or special care. Unlike fresh roses, which have a limited lifespan of only a few days, eternal roses can stay in perfect condition for months or even years.

The preservation process:

• Each flower is cut when it is at its most beautiful and colourful in Verdissimo’s own fields which are specifically dedicated to the cultivation of plants and flowers.
• The stems of the recently cut flowers are immediately submerged in a conserving substance which is made from glycerine and other plant components.
• The sap of the flower is gradually replaced by the liquid until after a few days the process is complete.
• Then, each flower is examined to remove damaged petals or leaves. The result is a perfect flower, extremely beautiful with a fantastic colour.

How is an eternal rose made?

The secret of eternal roses lies in their delicate preservation process, which captures and maintains their maximum beauty for long periods of time. This technique is 100% natural, carried out in several stages, ensuring that each flower retains its natural texture, color, and freshness. Below, we explain step by step how they are made:

Selection at the peak of splendor

Each eternal rose is harvested at its optimal point of color and beauty. At Verdissimo, the flowers are grown in our own fields dedicated exclusively to cultivating high-quality plants and flowers, certified by Florverde, ensuring that only the best roses undergo the preservation process.

Immersion in a preserving solution

Once harvested, the stems of the freshly cut roses are immediately immersed in a preservative solution made of glycerin and other plant-based compounds. This liquid gradually replaces the natural sap of the flower, ensuring the petals and stem maintain their flexibility and fresh appearance.

Complete sap replacement
Over several days, the preservative liquid gradually replaces the entire sap of the rose. This process is key to maintaining the structure and natural texture of the flower, keeping it flawless for years.

Review and perfection

After the preservation process is complete, each flower undergoes a thorough inspection to remove any petals or leaves that may have been damaged. This ensures that the final result is a perfect rose, with a captivating color and impeccable appearance.
The result is a rose that combines the best of nature and technology, ideal for decorating and preserving special moments.

Advantages of Eternal or Preserved Roses

Eternal roses, also known as preserved roses, offer a number of benefits that make them a unique and attractive alternative to fresh flowers:

• Exceptional durability: These flowers maintain their flawless appearance for months or even years, while a fresh rose lasts only a few days.
• Minimal care: They require no water, sunlight, or fertilizers, making them perfect for those with little time or looking for low-maintenance décor.
• Sustainability: Thanks to their long lifespan, they reduce the need to purchase flowers frequently, contributing to a lower environmental impact.
• Decorative versatility: Their variety of colors and sizes makes them an ideal option for any type of decoration or event

The Saint Valentine’s day legend

According to legend, the emperor Claudio II prohibited young people from getting married as he believed if they were free from ties, they would compete better in the battlefields.

Valentine was a prestigious priest from Rome who defied this prohibition and continued to marry young couples, unbeknownst to the emperor. When the emperor found out, he was livid and sent Valentine to prison. Behind bars, he performed the miracle of restoring the sight of the daughter of one of the prison guards. After this happened, all of the guard’s family converted to Christianity, but they could not stop the furious emperor from ordering Valentine’s execution on the 14^th of February.

The young girl whose sight had been restored by Valentine planted an almond tree in front of his grave. Since then, flowers have become the symbol of friendship and love. The 14^th of February, Lovers’ Day, is celebrated all over the world.

The custom of giving flowers has survived since then. Now, the most popular flowers on the 14^th of February are red roses, the quintessential flowers of passion and love.

Each rose colour is associated with certain characteristics: pink-happiness, orange-friendship, blue-peace and red-passion.

In this article, we will focus on the meaning of yellow roses and explain the best moments to gift bouquets of this vibrant color, based on its deep symbolism. Additionally, if you’d like to learn more about the meaning of roses according to their color, we invite you to explore our dedicated article on this topic.

The origin of yellow flowers

Fossils suggest that roses originated 32 million years ago in the Northern Hemisphere.

These roses, typical of Europe, the Americas and the Middle East, were mostly pink. In some areas, roses in different shades of pink could be found, from fuchsia to pastel pink, and even in white.

However, roses in other colors, such as yellow, were discovered much later.

Yellow roses also originate from the Middle East. Specifically, Europeans discovered them in Afghanistan and southeast Asia in the 18^th century. These roses bloomed naturally across these lands in shades ranging from pale yellow to sulfur.

This discovery captivated many Europeans, so they soon began to grow them in Europe and also tried to create hybrids between yellow and European roses.

The 3 flowers used in hybridization with European roses were the following:

• Rosa Ecae: It originates from Afghanistan. This rose is a little bush with yellow flowers that look like buttercups.
• Rosa Foetida: This flower stands out for its large size and vibrant yellow color.
• Rosa Hemisphaerica: It originates from southeast Asia. Hemisphaerica roses stand out not only for their intense yellow color but also because they have double flowers.

Symbolism of yellow flowers

The color yellow is very vibrant and cheerful, which is why it’s associated with optimism, warmth, joy and also happiness.

Contrary to popular belief, the color yellow doesn’t have negative connotations. It’s a very lively color because it symbolizes brilliance, gold, and the sun. Although it is true that for the most superstitious people it has the reputation of being the color of bad luck.

Therefore, the yellow flowers symbolize optimism, joy and harmony, so they are flowers to give to friends, so that your relationship will be strengthened in difficult times.

On the other hand, the color yellow is also associated with that half of your brain responsible for expressing feelings and communicating. This color helps clarify ideas, so it’s often used in meditation.

Visualizing yellow for a long period of time, according to meditation experts, makes communicating between people easier, since it’s associated with the power of words and expression.

So, if you have a problem with somebody, whether your partner, family member, friend, coworker, etc. and you need to talk with him or her, a good gift may be yellow flowers.

All the Meanings of Yellow Roses

Yellow roses, beyond their unmistakable beauty and brightness, are a symbol filled with positive and optimistic meanings that fit various contexts. This vibrant color, associated with the sun and vital energy, makes these flowers an ideal gift to express emotions related to joy, personal connection, and achievements.

• Friendship: Yellow roses are the universal symbol of friendship. Giving these flowers conveys a message of closeness, support, and gratitude towards those who are part of our lives. They are perfect for strengthening bonds and reminding our friends how much we value their company.
• Joy and Happiness: Their vibrant hue evokes optimism and positive energy. They are ideal for celebrating special moments such as birthdays, graduations, or any occasion where we want to share happiness and good wishes.
• Energy and Vitality: Yellow roses represent enthusiasm and vitality. Their presence brightens any space, conveying a sense of freshness and dynamism. They make the perfect gift to motivate someone or to commemorate a moment full of life and excitement.
• Success and Pride: Yellow roses are also symbols of triumph and personal growth. They are an ideal gift to congratulate someone on an important achievement, such as a job promotion, the completion of a project, or academic success.
• Wisdom and Intelligence: This color is also linked to intellect, mental clarity, and inspiration. Therefore, giving yellow roses can symbolize respect for someone’s wisdom or admiration for their ability to make intelligent and thoughtful decisions.

What’s the best time to give yellow roses as a gift?

Any time is the right time to give the gift of yellow roses as long as you want to share feelings of joy and gratitude with your gift.

Nevertheless, you should be aware that yellow roses aren’t the perfect flower for winning over a love interest; in this case we would recommend red roses or even pink roses.

In this sense, yellow flowers are more closely linked to feelings of friendship, as distinct from love, passion, and sensuality.

The significance of yellow roses makes them perfect for occasions such as: a friend’s birthday, a relative’s birthday, a friend or relative’s welcome home party, etc.

However, as we’ve mentioned in the section about the symbolism of yellow roses, these flowers have the power to enhance communication with anybody, so they’re a necessary gift if you want to express your feelings to somebody or want that person to communicate with you, whatever the reason.

Verdissimo’s yellow roses

Here at Verdissimo, the largest producer of preserved flowers and plants, we have a great variety of yellow roses, including different shades of yellow. Allow us to tell you a little bit about them:

What is the meaning of a red rose?

Red roses are universally recognized as symbols of love and passion. Their vibrant red color evokes deep feelings of affection and desire, making them the preferred choice for expressing romantic emotions. Giving a red rose is a classic display of love and admiration, especially on occasions like anniversaries or Valentine’s Day.

In addition to their association with romantic love, red roses also represent respect and devotion. Therefore, they are appropriate for expressing gratitude or appreciation towards someone special. In various cultures, these flowers have been symbols of beauty and perfection, and their presence in ceremonies and celebrations emphasizes the significance of the event.

In Greek mythology, the red rose is linked to Aphrodite, the goddess of love, who, according to legend, created the flower from the blood of her beloved Adonis. This myth reinforces the connection of the red rose with eternal love and boundless passion

What Do Red Roses Symbolize When Given to You?

Why do lovers give red roses?

Although there are different myths and theories, we believe the story about the Roman Priest Valentine who said that Claudio III, the emperor at that time, had prohibited young warriors to marry as he believed that if they did not have family ties they would enlist in his army more easily.

Valentine, a fervent defender of love and marriage, married young couples who came to him in secret. When the emperor found out, he put him in prison and condemned him to death. While he was waiting for his sentence, Valentine fell in love with the daughter of the warden, and before his death he declared his love with a note and a red rose. From then, real love is embodied in this beautiful flower.

What does giving a red rose to a woman or a man mean?

Giving a red rose, whether to a woman or a man, is a universal gesture that symbolizes love, passion, and admiration. Beyond gender, this flower represents the language of the heart and serves as a perfect symbol to express deep and sincere emotions.

When given to a woman, the red rose conveys a message of romantic and pure love, evoking passion and desire. It is ideal for special occasions such as anniversaries, Valentine’s Day, or simply to remind her how much she means to you. With its timeless beauty, a single red rose can express emotions that words sometimes fail to capture.

In the case of men, giving a red rose is also a gesture full of significance. While it may seem less common, it is increasingly popular to use this flower as a symbol of love, admiration, or respect for a special man. This gift can be an elegant and original way to show deep feelings, celebrate a romantic relationship, or even express gratitude and affection during important moments.

A message of infinite love with a preserved rose

The meaning of red roses is quite clear. This type of flower isn’t given to just anyone, but to someone who we love or want to woo. The drawback of fresh flowers, apart from their high price, is their short lifespan, a problem that we can solve by giving Verdissimo’s preserved roses, which are fresh roses that are incredibly beautiful and colourful and which maintain their colour and beauty for years.

Red roses: The quintessential gift of lovers

Red roses shouldn’t be given to family or friends as they could send a confused message. They are reserved for a partner or the person who is in our heart.

In addition to love, red roses also represent passion. If someone gives us red roses, it means that we inspire love and also an intense desire.

Giving roses is a classic on Saint Valentine’s Day. Red roses are ideal as a Saint Valentine’s Day gift, to celebrate an anniversary, an engagement…or simply to let our partner know how much we love them.

It is a lovely way of declaring love, passion, and desire and you can also give a gorgeous bouquet of red and white roses. We can also give a long-stem preserved rose that will remain perfectly the same with the passage of time.

Mother’s Day: What is its origin?

The origin of Mother’s Day is much more distant than many people think. Some people still associate it with consumerism and department stores; however, the tradition is much older than these. Its origin goes back to when the mother figure was paid tribute to as a symbol of life and fertility.
For example, in ancient Greece, festivals were held in honor of the goddess Rhea, considered the mother of all gods. In ancient Rome, a festival was held in honor of the goddess Cybele, considered the mother of the earth.
However, the modern celebration of Mother’s Day began in the 20th century in the United States, when a campaign was launched to create a special day dedicated to mothers. In 1914, the President of the United States officially proclaimed the second Sunday in May as Mother’s Day.
Since then, the celebration of Mother’s Day has spread to many countries, with dates and traditions unique to each place.

Which flower symbolizes mothers?

All the flowers we have mentioned in this article are appropriate and symbolize the love between mothers and children and other feelings linked to them.

The Magic of Preserved Flowers and Environmental Responsibility

Preserved flowers are the embodiment of nature captured in its fullest expression. Unlike fresh flowers, these natural pieces have been carefully treated to maintain their freshness and vitality without the need for water. This process not only allows us to enjoy their splendor for much longer but also emphasizes the importance of adopting sustainable practices in the floral industry.

The Crucial Role of Water in Flower Cultivation

Water is essential in flower production. That’s why it’s crucial to emphasize that the high percentage of water we use for the growth and sustenance of our crops comes from a natural source like rain, underscoring the need to manage this resource responsibly. By adopting techniques for harvesting rainwater, we can reduce dependence on external sources and contribute to the sustainable use of water. This practice not only benefits our environment but also promotes the stability and quality of aquatic ecosystems.

The Importance of Water Conservation in Sustainable Production

On World Water Day, it’s imperative that we reflect on how our individual and business actions can make a difference. In the production of preserved flowers, implementing efficient irrigation systems and water reuse are crucial steps. By embracing sustainable technologies and responsible practices, we not only ensure the quality of our products but also contribute to preserving one of our planet’s most precious resources.

A Lasting Commitment

At Innovaflora (and its brands Verdissimo and Florever), we recognize the importance of caring for water and are committed to sustainable practices. On this World Water Day, we invite everyone to join us in the ongoing effort to preserve and responsibly utilize this vital resource. By choosing preserved flowers, you not only bring the beauty of nature into your home but also support an environmentally respectful approach in the floral industry.

We invite you to cultivate a future where beauty and sustainability flourish hand in hand.
