May 14th: Rose day or Yellow day?!

August 9, 2026

The series of parties dedicated to lovers continues. Like every 14th of the month, in May we celebrate Rose Day, called rose day or yellow day because couples exchange roses and dress in yellow.

On this day, in fact, couples often wear yellow and possibly coordinated clothes. Usually the roses that are exchanged are also yellow in color. You can give one or a whole bunch as a gift.

If you are wondering why people mainly give yellow roses, which mean jealousy, the choice depends on the fact that this date is also called Yellow Day because people dress in yellow.

In the language of flowers, the yellow rose therefore does not have such a romantic and beautiful meaning, but on May 14th we don't pay attention to the meaning, but rather to being perfectly matching and coordinated.

Of course, roses of other colors can also be exchanged. Red ones indicate passionate love, white ones purity and lavender ones eternal love. Now that you know the meanings and colors you can have fun.

What if you are single? Don't worry, it seems, even today you find a way to celebrate by eating curry, which is also yellow! You will make resolutions to get out of your single condition and how to find a lover!
