What does a black rose symbolize?
Today, the editor will explain the meaning of black roses and related topics such as the language and symbolism of black roses in flower cultivation. Here is a detailed introduction.
In daily life, people often see roses in colors like red, white, and pink, but black roses are rare. Therefore, many people may not know the language of black roses, and some may even speculate blindly that the reason black roses are rare in the market is because their symbolism is not good. Is this really the case?
The symbolism of black roses is not about dark underground love or false love, but about gentleness and sincerity!
What is the language of black roses?
Previously, a flower enthusiast discussed this topic with Ayeo. Because black roses are so rare, their appearance is always surrounded by a sense of mystery. Many people interpret the language of black roses as dark underground love, false love, and cursed blessings. However, in reality, the language of black roses is very beautiful and not as bad as people think. It symbolizes gentleness and sincerity.
However, the language of flowers is a special plant culture written by humans, and it varies from region to region. Black roses are very rare and grow only in a small town called Halfeti in Turkey. Black roses seen elsewhere are usually formed by artificial intervention, such as injecting dyes. Only in Turkey, the petals of black roses are truly black. Locally, black roses symbolize death and bad news, but also bring hope and passion, and are a symbol of the mysterious world.
Although the language of black roses is gentleness and sincerity, representing a unique love, Ayeo does not recommend giving this type of flower to a loved one. First of all, it is very difficult to buy real black roses on the market, so the black roses available are usually dyed with色素 or painted black. These artificially modified black roses indeed symbolize falsity, and since they are fake, they are not suitable for giving to someone you truly love.

So, after all this, can black roses be cultivated?
As mentioned earlier, the only black roses in the world grow in Turkey, and their color is not completely black, but a deep red that is close to black. Black roses in Turkey are only black in the summer, and the rest of the year, they are just deep red. Of course, there are also two types of deep red roses commonly seen on the market, Black Magic and Black Beauty, whose colors are relatively close to black roses.
Black Magic has a large and beautiful bloom, with a dark color mixed with a hint of red, making it look mysterious, like magic. Black Beauty is more delicate, with petals that have a velvet sheen, also a dark red color. However, these types of roses are not only rare in the market but also difficult to cultivate. Their color becomes deeper only in specific soil and with sufficient light. Flower enthusiasts can also grow these two types of roses at home.
The cultivation of all roses is relatively simple. They all prefer to grow in well-lit, cool, and humid places. Therefore, when growing roses at home, it is best to place them in a sunny and well-ventilated corner, maintaining a temperature between 15-25°C, and supplementing with sufficient fertilizer and water. The number of rose blooms will be better if they receive at least 6 hours of sunlight per day, and the color and fragrance of the roses will be more authentic.
