Flowers, and their meanings

I was deep in philosophical discussion on a forum today (ok so take philosophical discussion and replace it with meaningless, mindless nattering) but I read something quite interesting: a big list of what the various colours of flowers, and types of flowers, signify in terms of emotion, feelings or meanings. Check it out:

Black Roses signify Death
Coral Rose conveys desire
Lavender Roses symbolize love at first sight and enhancement
Orange Roses indicate enthusiasm, desire and fascination
Pink (Deep) says Thank You
Pink (Light) Rose conveys admiration, gentleness, grace, gladness, joy and sweetness
Pink Rose carry the message of happiness, gracefulness and gentleness
Red Roses symbolize sincere Love, Respect, Courage & Passion
Red (Dark) Rose reveals unconscious beauty
Red (Single) means "I Love You"
Red & White Roses together signify unity
Single Rose in any color expresses simplicity and gratitude
White Roses express Purity/heavenly, secrecy, silence, innocence and charm
White (Bridal) Rose symbolizes a happy love
Yellow Roses indicate joy, gladness, friendship and "I Care"
Yellow Rose with Red Tip indicates friendship falling in Love

I never knew all that! I knew about the red, white and black, but I never knew the other stuff. The adage that you learn something new every day continues to hold true for me.
