Can I give roses from my garden to anyone?

I have a fairly large rose garden and have to cut flowers before they make seeds so that they keep blooming. They are dozens of beautiful pink and red fragrant rose stems in full bloom, and I hate to throw them away. Can I just give to just friends or co-workers for no reason? Do you think they make some second guess? Or will they be annoyed?

Can I give roses from my garden to anyone?
put a sign in your yard saying roses12.99 a dozen, and sell them
Reply:red roses are for love


yellow roses are for friends


white roses are for weddings %26amp; funerals


pink is common among weddings


and any other color is fine to give in any respect you wish.


Just proper color coded ettiquette
Reply:Stick to giving them to female relatives.
Reply:Just be sure to mention that it's a friendship thing and give them to EVERYONE so no one feels left out or offended.
Reply:I would say give them to someone that likes them. It would be kinda weird to just give one to someone if they don't care for flowers.
Reply:as long as u explain ur intentions it's ok
Reply:new root will grow can you without ensure make
Reply:No, you may not give them to just anyone...





You must give them to me!
Reply:hey, u got a perfectly good reason, and your going out of your way to be nice don't worry about what they think Not everything needs to be over analyzed..whatever happened to simple acts of kindness w/o motive or strings???
Reply:well personlly i thhink of it as a way to show happiness and love t oeveryone in the world so yes you can
Reply:I have an English garden. I have the most beautiful roses any where.I always give my roses on special occasion. I arrange them in a beautiful vase, and they are more special then any of those frozen ones you get at the florist.
Reply:By all means, take them to your co-workers! I don't know of ANYBODY who doesn't appreciate getting flowers!
Reply:If you are not giving them for sentimental reasons, you can just put them in a common area at your job with a little note telling everyone that they are free %26amp; you cut them from your very own garden. ~That is so nice of you.~
Reply:i think that is a nice gesture. i can't imagine anyone would be annoyed by this.





maybe put a nice vase full in your breakroom.





or take a vase full to your local retirement home they will love them.





call hospice and offer them to a family.





i think it is nice of you to share the beauty.
Reply:heck no!!





evry1 ♥s roses!!





lol
Reply:Are you kidding? Anyone (who likes flowers) would be thrilled to receive them. I don't have roses, but I have lilacs and peonies and I always take some to work and give them to my co-workers and they love them. I also give them to some of our senior customers and they really appreciate the thought. I work in a pharmacy so we have quite a few seniors and it just makes their day.





Give them to whomever you feel would enjoy them and enjoy making someone's day.
Reply:I think it's fine. I would say something to the effect that they came from my garden and I just wanted someone else to be able to enjoy them too.
Reply:Sure, I would love to get roses for no reason at all! That would be great.
Reply:You know what would be nice is making little arrangements and taking them to your local seniors home and hospital. You could really brighten someones day.
Reply:yea, give them away. just not to anyone you think might get the wrong impression.
Reply:I think it would be a nice gesture to hand out flowers, to everyone, don't single out one person, unless you want that person to have special attention from you... did that make sense? oh well.i think it would be nice to give away flowers though. i mean, they are your flowers, you can do with them as you wish.
Reply:You can pass along a bouquet with a smile and say, "I grew these, and I hope you and the other people who see and smell them like them as much as I do."





If you hand out several, so they spring up all over the office, everyone will praise your roses, and you won't be socially awkward.
Reply:i think u can give it. i wish i had friend that would have given me some flowers from time to time. i like it very much.
Reply:Just as long as they know its not in a romantic way, unless it is. You don't want to mislead them.
Reply:Not just anyone. Some people are allergic, others have phobias.
Reply:I would love your roses. Or you could try to sell them...make a little money :)
Reply:yeah just tell them why


if you say here is a rose, and not tell them why, that would be creepy
Reply:You should give them to kids at your local childrens hospital.
Reply:I'd do it -- but give them to friends. They'll appreciate the color and fragrance it brings into their homes. Maybe ask them if they'd like roses first, however.
Reply:I think that giving your beautiful roses to people is a wonderful idea. I don't that someone might think of something else, but you could ask if anyone would like some roses to decorate their house, or desk with to make sure that they are not allergic to the smell. You could also cut them and take them to your church to decorate the altar with. You could put some in the back of church for people to take home with them. It is a very lovely idea and I wish my roses were so plentiful, but they are only a few months old. Good luck.
Reply:sounds like a nice thing to do to me. Just tell them you had to many and didn't want to throw them away.
