Roses are a sign of Remembrance: A symbol that you
remember someone who is far away.
The term "sub rosa"In
ancient Roman times a wild
rose would be placed as a marker on the door of a room where
confidential meetings took place. The
term 'sub rosa' means 'under the rose'.
Hence
the sub rosa in today's terms means
to keep a secret . . . "shhhhh!" | |
