🌼💛 Ever wondered why yellow roses are everywhere on Melbourne Cup Day?
It’s actually a beautiful little tradition!
Every major race day during the Melbourne Cup Carnival has its own signature flower, and for the race that stops the nation, it’s the yellow rose.
Symbolising friendship, joy and celebration, these gorgeous golden blooms have become just as much a part of Cup Day as the fashion, fascinators and ch*****ne!
So whether you’re heading trackside or celebrating with friends, a little touch of yellow is a nod to one of Melbourne’s favourite spring traditions.
Happy Melbourne Cup Day from The Bloom Room! 🥂💛
