Buy Flowers for Valentine’s Day Early to Save Money
Buying a bouquet of roses for your sweetheart on Valentine’s Day ensures they are fresh, but they can also cost you almost double your usual price tag. You might want to buy them early – for example now.
Leah Libresco of FiveThirtyEight spoke with florists in the 20 largest cities in the US and found that yes, the cost of flowers (especially roses) is on the rise on Valentine’s Day. However, Libresco also found that roses would not wilt for at least five to seven days if cared for properly . Buying roses early will save you extra costs and still look great for a few days after Valentine’s Day. Better yet, Libresco invites you to consider buying other, more hearty flowers that will take even longer to begin to fade. Carnations and orchids look beautiful, smell great, and won’t wither in almost two weeks. You can find out more about how to buy cheap flowers for Valentine’s Day by following the link below.
