I'd prefer a batch of Sakura to Roses. While roses are lovely, and come in many colors, each rose comes with it's own special meaning. That either proves that there had to be a lot of thought involved, if they choose the right one for the occasion, or that they didn't really think as to what the flower would mean when they bought them. I'd rather not complicate someone with that, and it's just difficult to say to someone that a dark rose does not signify love and friendship.

..On the other hand, Sakura are really hard to come by, unless you are in Japan. You'd have to get the actual tree to get the flower; and who can argue with a tree of beautiful, imported flowers?
