The history of the black rose dates back to Ancient Greece and Rome when the fascinating flower was used as a symbol of power and strength. In the 19th century during the Victorian Era, the black rose grew in popularity through literature and the Language of Flowers, where people communicated using flowers with coded messages. Throughout time, the dark bloom has been a symbol of black magic as well as mutiny and resistance for anarchist and antiauthoritarian groups. The transcendent allure of the mystic black rose continues in today’s pop culture.

Just like the phrase, “when one door closes, another one opens”, black roses can imply the end of a meaningful time in your life, but can also be a lovely indicator of the start of something new. Signifying a rebirth or a major change, black roses are known to represent optimism and hope.
