Did you know that the Victorians began the trend of giving flowers for Valentine's Day.
Red roses being used as a symbol of romance has been dated back to ancient Rome — apparently it was the favourite bouquet of Venus, the Roman goddess of love (and Cupid's mom). But it wasn't until the the Victorian era that men really began giving the flower to women they were wooing.
Valentine's Day is pritty much one of our busiest days of the year. Most of the flowers we sell Valentine's week are (you guessed it) roses! It's estimated that more than 250 million roses are grown for Valentine’s Day, and more than half of those are red. We offer longer shopping hours in our store or you can pre-order to lock in a Canberra delivery. This Valentine's day we are delivering to over 130+ Canberra suburbs & surrounds.
It's important to note that although we are amazing at making beautiful bouquets of roses we too have our limits and once we sell out that's it! So it's best to preorder to secure your flowers or delivery this year.
