Beautiful red rose best husband award

The rose in Greek mythology was associated with Aphrodite, the goddess of love. Aphrodite is often depicted with roses in her hair in paintings showing her passion and love for Adonis. The rose is a symbol of secrets. The term, "sub rosa" means under the rose and dates back to the Roman empire. During secret meetings, Romans would hang roses over the table where it was known that anything discussed at that table would be kept secret. A red rose symbolizes passion, love, devotion and sacrifice.
