White Roses

By Sidra Nawed

White roses are very pretty and my mother likes them most. The spiritual meaning of a white rose represents change, transformation, spiritual growth, and evolution. In some cases, it can represent unconditional love and neutrality. When used at a wedding, white roses are a symbol of happy love. White roses are not very common but they have a very beautiful scent. I got some seeds from a market and these included white roses also. Roses bloom on and off throughout the season (from mid spring to fall), making them among the most desirable garden plants. For the best show of flowers and the healthiest plants, rose bushes should receive six to eight hours of sunlight daily. They should also be planted in well-drained soil that is rich in organic matter. In especially hot climates, roses do best when they are protected from the hot afternoon sun. They have a very beautiful scent. I also love white roses.
