www.howdini.com If you’re buying red roses for Valentine’s Day, get ready for sticker shock–and we’re not talking about the thorns. Floral Designer Rebecca Cole has great tips to help you get the most for your money. How to buy roses for Valentine’s Day without paying too much * Roses come in ten different grades and many different lengths; the higher the grade, the higher the price. * A low-grade rose, like those at a grocery store, is not even bred to open and will never blossom. A rose from your florist has a big gorgeous head and will fully open, but it may cost to per rose. * The longer the stem, the more youll pay. If you want high-grade roses, order them from a florist, but ask the florist for a shorter stem. * If you dont want to spend a lot of money for your flowers, but you still want to buy roses, mix them with other flowers like carnations, ranunculus and tulips. But do remember that all red flowers will cost more on Valentines day. * When you buy roses for a Valentine who lives in your town, order from a local florist. And if youre ordering flowers online, remember that shipping is going to cost you extra. * Ask for no filler. Greens are okay, but babys breath is very uncool. And remember, you get what you pay for.
