A bouquet of yellow roses is a symbol of friendship and joy. We give it to someone with whom we have deep, sincere and friendly feelings, or to someone we want to cheer up and put a smile on their face.

Why do we feel charged by the colour yellow?

We can definitely feel that the colour yellow fills our soul, our consciousness with optimism, as if the energy of sunshine is being released. This is no coincidence: research has shown that the colour yellow causes our brains to release serotonin, the hormone of happiness. It does indeed convey cheerfulness, warmth and optimism. That's why, for example, we work better when we're in a room with a lot of this colour.

How can we embrace it in our home?

Yellow is also a rewarding colour to work with in interior design. It immediately makes the environment feel warm and cosy, as if the sun's rays are really shining into the room. Its pleasant pastel shade gives Mediterranean vibes to the interior and can also enhance our sense of space. Its light, subtle shades are well suited to a modern environment. And its strong, vibrant versions are a sure way to bring eternal sunshine into a room. But we should be careful not to overuse it: too much or too strong yellow can be distracting and frustrating. In fact, in most cases – especially when using a bright, saturated tone – a single yellow wall, or a single piece of furniture, for example, a yellow armchair is enough to achieve the desired effect.

It also works great as a complementary colour, with yellow decorations we can brighten up any part of our home. If we use let’s say, mostly neutral colours, it's a great complement to those colours. We can use it on a variety of textiles, curtains, wallpaper, furniture, etc., but we can also include it through yellow-themed pictures or other small decorations. A timeless and elegant solution is to make this colour part of our home with The Million Roses forever rose boxes of yellow flowers 

Why is the yellow forever rose box a good choice to freshen up our living room?

Forever roses bring a sense of fresh flowers into our home. This can feel especially important in spring, but while a bouquet of cut flowers needs constant care and we need to buy new ones quickly, a forever rose bouquet doesn't even need watering. It will keep its beauty for more than 3 years, and we don't have to give up the fresh scent of flowers. Real roses undergo a process of preservation with natural materials and it is from these rose stems that the sumptuous compositions of The Million Roses are created. The cheerful yellow colour is used to lock the essence of joy into these delightful bouquets. But roses aren't our only choice — let's see what other stunning yellow forever flower bouquets we can enjoy in our home.

Persian buttercup - in terms of the eternal spring

We've dreamed up astonishing bouquets of Persian buttercups and green hydrangea blossoms . The breathtaking spring is the theme of the selection, and the dome arrangement takes floral composition to a new level of luxury. Making it the centrepiece of our home decor, we won't be disappointed. Its sophisticated style and chic will impress everyone. From a wide range of flower and box colours, we've chosen an amazing one composed of bright yellow flower heads and a gold box. Whether as a gift or for our living room, it brings to life the spring sunshine and charming elegance.

Sunflower, the yellow icon

Whatever the environment, it brings the Sun itself, the life force. We cannot just walk past it — we have to admire it every time. The showy flowers are surrounded by green hydrangeas, which accentuate the overwhelming splendour of the yellow colour. This bouquet is not a shy piece; it's a real diva, and it demands all the attention for itself!

Honesty or envy?

While we clearly see the yellow rose as a symbol of joy and friendship, in reality its meaning can vary from culture to culture. In Western culture today it has a distinctly positive message, but this was not always the case. Its meaning has changed a lot over time: in medieval Europe, for example, it was clearly a symbol of jealousy and envy. Let's see what it symbolises in different parts of the world:

• In China it represents imperial power and wealth.

• In Japan it means courage and glory.

• In India it has a religious message, symbolising spiritual purity.

• In Africa it represents wealth, fertility and abundance.

• In the Arab world, it is the colour of nature and farmland, but it also has a negative connotation, meaning illness and decay. 

• In Russia, it can have a truly unique meaning: it can also symbolize infidelity and betrayal.

So we could say that it's worth being very careful when giving a yellow rose — and it's worth getting to know the person we're giving it to as much as possible.

Gifting guideline: when and how?

A great choice for birthdays, Mother's Day, or when we just want to please someone, send our wishes or express our gratitude. The yellow rose bouquet is a symbol of friendship and joy. It is a clear expression that we share the joy and happiness of the person we're giving it to. This makes it a good choice for graduation or as a housewarming gift as well.

By choosing a shade of yellow, we can further refine the message of our gift. A light yellow rose can symbolise youth and new beginnings, while a darker or brighter shade of yellow can symbolise maturity and wisdom.

And finally: for whom is it the best gift?

Remember, if we want to surprise our friends and close loved ones, we may confidently choose the yellow rose: it is a gift of sunny cheerfulness, an expression of our sincere appreciation, care and concern for the recipient. We can't go wrong when we choose a yellow rose as a gift for a mother, a sister, a best friend or a highly valued colleague.
