2. 14 What color is Valentine's Day?

Most people think it is red, which comes from an ancient Roman legend.

An English dictionary points out that Valentine's Day is February 14, which originated from the faun festival in ancient Rome. It is said that birds begin to mate on this day. It was the custom at that time: during the Animal Husbandry Festival, every young man drew lots from a box with a note with a young woman's name written on it. The person drawn will become the sweetheart of young people. Later, the festival was changed to commemorate a Christian saint named Valentine.

St. Valentine, a young Christian missionary in ancient Rome, ventured to spread Christianity and was arrested and imprisoned, which touched the old jailer and his blind daughter and took good care of him. Before he was executed, Saint Valentine wrote a letter to the girl, expressing his deep affection for her. On the day when he was executed, the blind girl planted an apricot tree with red flowers in front of his grave to express her feelings. This day is February 14. Now, on Valentine's Day, many young men also make postcards of courting St. Valentine into exquisite handicrafts and cut them into butterflies and flowers to show their sincerity and determination. Girls put laurel leaves on pillows at night, hoping to dream about their lovers. Usually on Valentine's Day, a red rose is given to express the feelings between lovers. A half-opened red rose is the best gift for a girl on Valentine's Day, and the girl takes a box of heart-shaped chocolates as a gift.

So it is defined as red.
