Gift a Valentines Day Rose
Valentine’s Day falls on 14 February every year. It is the day for couples to show how much they care. However, it is also a lovely time to thank friends and family. So, why not keep it simple with a single red rose?
Why a single red rose says so much
A dozen roses is a grand gesture. Even so, one perfect stem can feel just as meaningful. A single red rose is often said to mean “you’re the one”. As a result, it is a romantic, thoughtful and affordable gift.
The history of roses on Valentine’s Day
Roses have stood for love and beauty for centuries. Over time, the red rose became the symbol of romance. That is why roses remain the most popular flower on Valentine’s Day.
How to present your rose
Presentation makes a big difference. For example, ask for your rose to be wrapped with a little greenery. Alternatively, choose a bud vase so it can be displayed straight away. Finally, add a short handwritten card.
Other colours and ideas
Red is the classic choice. However, pink roses suggest admiration, while white roses express devotion. If you want a bigger gesture, a bouquet of roses is always special. In addition, you can pair flowers with chocolates or a candle.
Valentine’s Day is for everyone
Being single doesn’t matter on Valentine’s Day. You can celebrate with friends, family or colleagues. A small flower is a kind way to say thank you to anyone you care about.
