Though true black roses don't exist, blooms that are the darkest red can look black. Giving someone black roses would mean the death of a relationship or idea.
Dark red roses speak of a beauty past its prime, a passion that has lost its warmth, and a love that is quickly dying off. A dark crimson rose that almost borders on black is indicative of mourning and sadness. There are also people who know that they can be together only briefly. They have pressures that can't keep them together. Yet, they have intense feelings for one another and know that though they can't be together, their feelings can never die. The sadness in their love, and its inevitability, find expression in dark red roses. They part with dark red roses, stating their love indelibly, and sometimes even send each other red roses to express how much they cherish it even after they are no longer together.
