There really is no such thing as a true black rose. When most gardeners or horticulturalists talk about black roses, they are actually talking about the deep dark maroon roses. The pedals of this black rose are such a deep red it almost appears to be black in color. This confuses a lot of shoppers because we all have seen jet black roses on the market. We have found out that these are actually altered roses, that are either painted or dipped into a black dye. So when your ordering a black rose make sure you specify what you’re actually looking for. To prove this point the deep red rose “Black Magic” carries the name in its name. But in reality the flower is red.
The black rose even carries a meaning with it. Because of people indicating it as a black rose. The deep dark red rose carries the meaning of death and morning. Because of these meanings the darker the red of a rose the more people tend to stir away from it.
The so called black rose hasn’t always carried a negative meaning. The Irish has used it in song while in battle with the British as the strength and backbone of the Irish army. So as you can see the black rose has also carried the meaning of courage and resistance.
