Shopping For Exactly The Right Flowers Can Be Tricky, But This Expert Gave A Handy Guide On Which To Get When

Roses are red, but roses are also yellow, and purple, and green – look, there’s a lot of different roses.

That’s not very good stuff for the first line of a poem, though.

Maybe we can make more sense of all this using this video from TikTok user @361southtxdad:

“Remember,” says the woman behind the camera, assisting a customer.

“Red roses are for love.”

“Yellow roses are for friendship.”

“Which rose is for ‘don’t call me back?'” asks the customer.

Or just zig and zag.

It’s so romantic, isn’t it?

At least, we think it is.
