How and When to use Luxury Roses

The rose has been the main signifier for love, appreciation and romance, throughout the years. These elegant flowers are the perfect embodiment of affection and passion. But how does a Rose express so much emotion? The representation behind roses stems from the ancient Greek reference to Aphrodite – the goddess of love and has since been considered a sentimental gift, to represent affection.

Rose are often used to signify luxury, which is why they are used in a variety of different gestures. So how can you use your roses? 

Proposals 

Asking that special person to marry you can be breath-taking and nerve-wracking experience, but oh so rewarding when they say, YES! It’s a personal preference as to whether you choose an extravagant proposal, cue the fireworks, helicopter and destination of a lifetime. Or if you wish to keep it as just the two of you. Either way, being surrounded by luxury rose petals celebrates this special moment for the rest of your lives.

You could take your partner to their favourite restaurant, hire the entire place out, and fill the floor with rose petals. Or propose whilst on holiday right on the beach with the sand between your toes and a stunning walkway of petals?

Alternatively you could carefully place the ring inside a boxed Timeless Rose Stem and let them open it to reveal your heartfelt proposal and their beautiful new gift.

Anniversaries   

Receiving a beautiful flower releases endorphins, that make your heart beat that little bit faster. Giving your partner a stunning Timeless Rose Stem that lasts up to a year serves as a constant reminder of your love and appreciation. As a Timeless Rose Stem has been carefully preserved, it will hold its colour and shape just like a fresh rose. Pop the champagne and celebrate in style. Why not add a scattering of petals on your dinning room table, or as a path up to the bedroom?
