What are the most popular flowers to buy for valentine’s day?

Beautiful crimson roses are the traditional Valentines flowers and though it could seem a bit of a cliché, if you are going to go for WOW and wish to win the lady that you have liked for a long time or simply make a statement of your affection to your soul mate, sending a stupendous bouquet of red roses this February 14th may simply do the trick.

Our assortment of Valentine’s Day flowers includes classics like red and purple roses in addition to these traditional bouquets, we can combine roses with other stunning flowers in case you fancy something a bit different. Online florists can put together any other selection of romantic bouquets to send in time for Valentine’s Day. Be careful what flowers you choose if it’s not the traditional red roses. Expectations are everything and breaking from tradition may not always end well.

Every year without fail I will always treat my wife to the biggest and best bunch of roses that I can find. And yes, some years I have arranged for them to be delivered to her at work. (Trust me, this goes down well with the other women in her office!)

Gorgeous Valentine’s Day Flowers of the very best quality and delivered fresh to wherever you need them in the UK. Designed by our skilled florists, these romantic valentines range contains the traditional simplicity and high quality Twelve Red Roses.

Why do we always send 12 red roses for valentine’s day?

Well it wasn’t until I came to write this article that I researched this properly. After doing lots of reading there are some very simple traditions that explain why we always send 12 red roses. The tradition of giving a dozen red roses is to show a sign of love and appreciation to someone we care about. Each rose is meant to be for 1 month of the year, meaning a dozen completes the cycle of 1 whole year. We always associate roses to be red. As with red hearts, red is a significant and well recognised colour of love and adoration.

These are still some of the most traditional methods to display your love and affection to your partner. Luxury hand tied bouquets like Promised Roses and wonderful extravagant bespoke bouquets to the value of more than £100 can be made on request.

How much will a bouquet of roses cost me?

As this is an article about cheap valentines flowers then its fitting that we start there. As I mentioned before there are a lot of companies online that will offer you some great bouquets of red roses. Pretty much all these companies will be able to deliver your flowers for you if this is what you would like.

If you are going to stay with the traditional red roses, then below are some ideas on pricing.

A single red rose, with a teddy bear and some chocolates will cost you around the £20 – £25 mark. This is a simple but effective way that you can send a message to someone you love.

A small bouquet of mixed flowers which will contain roses, carnations and gypsophila will put you into the £25 – £30 price bracket. There are other selections of flowers that could be mixed with the roses. Sometimes this could be lilies or freesias and will keep you in the same price area.

A bouquet of roses on their own will look to cost you around the £30 – £40. All these bouquets will have 12 red roses. There may be a selection of other flowers or gypsophila that are mixed into these to help bulk them out, but you will still get the full 12 red roses.

Next are the premium valentines’ bouquets. These will be larger bouquets in size but still carry the traditional 12 red roses. These bouquets may be bulked out with other beautiful flowers and some fancy wrapping. They may also come with other gifts like a small bottle of Rose wine or some nice chocolates. These gifts will set you back between £40 – 50.

If that special person really means the world to you, as my wife does, then the options in the £50 – £80 can really be a small price to pay overall. The bouquets in this price range will be of the top quality with some multi-headed roses creating some magnificent arrangements. You will also get bouquets that break from tradition slightly and offer 24 red roses. But why not! Sometimes cheap valentines day flowers just arent worth it.

Our recommendation for valentine’s day flowers.

I fully understand that money isn’t always the main reason behind doing things. I also understand that not everyone can afford £80 of a bouquet of flowers, hence the reason why we are doing this article about cheap valentines day flowers.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with only spending £20 on the one you love. You’ve made the effort and you have shown your affection. I would highly recommend the ‘Be Mine Bear Gift’ for £25. This gives a single beautiful red rose to declare you love for only then. It gives the teddy bear which will be there for endless hugs and chocolates, well, who doesn’t love chocolate!!!

 

If you can afford it then the quality of the ‘True Romantic Gift set’ really is top of the range. This will set you back £78 but includes some extraordinarily beautiful red roses, and there’s 24 of them and they look amazing! You will also get a full bottle of Rose wine as well as some delicious chocolates. (Yes, I have tried them!) You really can’t beat this option, but it is pricey. Personally, I thought it was worth every penny. These are obviously not cheap valentines flowers but if you can go for it

Select Gifts as well as flowers

It’s always great to make a special romantic gesture by sending your beloved an selection of their favourite flowers. Don’t forget you could accompany the flowers with an I Love You” Balloon Bouquet, or a luxurious selection of sweets. Its not just flowers that we can send to our special partner. On many occasions I have sent a helium balloon.

For my wife’s 30th birthday I sent a bouquet of flowers and a helium balloon saying ‘30 Today’.  Although I thought this was a great idea, my wife didn’t. Let’s just say a simple balloon saying ‘Happy Birthday’ would have been better. But the thought was appreciated.

Always look for the other smaller gifts which can make the surprise present seem amazing. A small teddy, a box of chocolates, a bottle of wine. All of these will really make a difference if you do decide to choose some cheap valentines flowers.
