Among the ancient Greeks, roses symbolized secrecy. Wearing a rose
during a religious ceremony implied that the wearer would keep the
religion's secrets sacred. Ancient Greco-Roman culture also saw the rose
as a symbol of beauty, of springtime, and of love. And they saw in it a
reminder of how fleeting life can be. In Rome, "rosalia" was an annual
feast honoring the dead.
