Why Roses?
Roses, with their velvety petals and intoxicating fragrance, have long been the emblem of romance and enduring passion. But why do these blooms captivate even beyond aesthetics? Their significance spans cultures and centuries, with hues conveying messages from deep love (red roses) to friendship (yellow roses). The red rose, in particular, is steeped in mythology; enshrined by Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of love, it signifies desire and longing. It’s a Valentine’s Day tradition that endures, rendering red roses a poet’s muse and a lover’s language.
Choosing the Perfect Rose
When selecting that perfect bouquet, you’re not merely picking flowers—you’re crafting a message. Here’s how to convey it clearly:
- Meaning of Rose Colors: Beyond passionate red, consider pink for admiration, white for purity, or orange for enthusiasm.
- Number of Roses: Present a single rose for devoted attention, a dozen to declare your love, or more if you wish to lavish your feelings in grandeur.
- Bouquet Style: From tightly packed posies to an organic, garden-gathered appearance, your bouquet sets the stage for your romantic tale.
When standing amidst a sea of roses, remember that freshness trumps all. Inspect the petals for vibrancy and the stems for a healthy green luster. They should whisper, not shout, their freshness.
Valentine’s Day Gift Ideas
Complementing a bouquet with a thoughtful gift can amplify your message of love. Consider personal preferences or shared memories to select a meaningful gift. Possibilities range from bespoke jewelry, which serves as a persistent reminder of your feelings, to a handwritten letter, imbued with intimacy and care.
Incorporate roses into your gifts creatively:
- Rose-infused skincare for a touch of luxury.
- Edible rose petals in homemade chocolates for a sweet surprise.
- A rose-themed book for the literary enamored.
Balance traditional gifts with innovative ideas that reflect shared interests or goals, truly personalizing the spirit of Valentine’s Day.
Tips for a Memorable Valentine’s Day
To forge a truly memorable celebration, focus on shared experiences that reinforce your bond. Plan activities like:
- An intimate home-cooked dinner, accompanied by a playlist of songs significant to your relationship.
- A leisurely picnic in the park, with a basket full of favorite snacks and a sprig of roses atop.
- An adventure in the form of a dance class or a pottery session, creating room for laughter and new memories.
Remember that the essence of a romantic and memorable Valentine’s Day lies not in grandeur, but in heartfelt simplicity and shared joy.
Conclusion
From the first blush of courtship to the deep-rooted connections of long-lasting love, roses and personalized gifts remain visceral expressions of affection.

Hoover-Fisher Florist Offers Fresh and Romantic Roses and Valentine’s Gifts
Hoover-Fisher Florist sells more roses than other single floral variety. We buy many of the flowers we sell direct from the growers. Our team purchases from both domestic and international flower farms. Roses are the most popular flower in the world. Their meaning varies from culture to culture, but they’re generally associated with love and romance. They come in an array of colors, shapes, and sizes—from small, delicate buds to large, showy blooms. These gorgeous blooms are some of the most popular flowers in the world.
Roses are usually divided into three main categories: Old Garden, Damask and Floribunda.
Old Garden Roses are known for their strong fragrance and large blooms. They used to be the most popular type of rose until they were replaced by the hybrid tea roses in the early 20th century.
Damask Roses are known for their large petals with a deeply cut v-shape at the bottom of each petal. They only produce single blooms, but these blooms have an elegant look that makes them perfect for romantic occasions or weddings.
Floribunda Roses are known for their compact growth habit and ability to bloom continuously throughout the season without needing deadheading (cutting off old flowers). Floribunda roses can be either single or semi-double blooms and usually have medium-sized blooms with a strong fragrance.
Roses come in a variety of colors and sizes, and there are thousands of varieties to choose from. Here are some examples:
Pink: Pink roses are the most common type of rose. They’re very popular for weddings because they symbolize love and romance.
Red: Red roses are another common type of rose that symbolizes passion and desire. Red roses are associated with romantic relationships as well as friendship.
White: White roses represent purity, innocence, and virginity. They can be used to express sympathy or as an apology when given to someone who has experienced loss or heartbreak in their lives (such as a death).

Featured Flowers
Long Stem Pink Roses – are a type of rose that has a long stem. They are typically large, with the most popular being about 60cm in length. These roses are great for giving as gifts and for decorating for special occasions like weddings or birthdays.
The term “long-stemmed” refers to the length of the stem rather than the actual flower itself. These types of roses have very long stems, which make them ideal for placing in vases or around tables during special events. Long-stemmed pink roses are available in many different colors; however, they tend to be on the lighter side of pinks so they don’t overwhelm any other decorations you might have set up at your party or event space.
These types of flowers will keep their color and shape better than shorter varieties because they have been properly cared for prior to delivery. Long stem pink roses in a vase can last anywhere 5 – 7 days, depending on how often they receive proper care.
