A Romantic Red Roses Bouquet for Every Love Story

Red roses carry the big romantic moments: an anniversary, a proposal, a first Valentine's, a making-up. The classic A Magical Love Story Bouquet and the lavish Passionate Luxury Bouquet are made for the grand gesture, while My Valentine and the Love and Bloom Bouquet suit a heartfelt everyday I-love-you. Sending for a special date? Pair it with a gift for her or shop our Valentine's Day range.

How Many Red Roses to Send

Count is part of the message. A dozen red roses is the timeless declaration of love, while a bunch of red roses in 24, 50 or 100 stems turns devotion into a statement. The 50 Red Rose Bouquet is our most-sent grand gesture, and for a fuller bouquet of red roses see our large bouquet of roses and 50 roses bouquet ranges. The elegant Romantic Splendour Flower Bouquet shows how good a fuller count looks. For the grandest version of all, The Language of Love gathers 250 red, pink and cream roses into a single bouquet.

What Goes Well with Red Roses

Red roses shine on their own, but they pair beautifully too. Lush green foliage keeps it classic, as in the Red Rose Greenery Bouquet, while soft white blooms or baby's breath add contrast, lovely alongside our white rose bouquets. For something fuller and mixed, our mixed flower bouquets blend red roses with the season's best. Our guide to flower meanings and our piece on what flowers symbolise help you choose with intention.

Caring for Your Red Roses

A little care keeps red roses lovely for a week or more. Trim the stems at an angle, use a clean vase of cool water with the flower food provided, and keep them out of direct sun and away from the fruit bowl. Refresh the water every couple of days and re-snip the stems so they keep drinking. Our flower care guide and tips on caring for flowers in a vase cover it, and our 100 bouquet ideas guide has more inspiration.

Fresh Red Roses Bouquet, from Local Growers to Your Door

Freshness is what makes a red roses bouquet feel extravagant, and ours starts at the source. We choose deep-red blooms from trusted South African growers, then condition every stem in water at our Claremont studio before our florists hand-tie your bouquet on the morning it goes out. It is the same standard we have kept since 1999, and the reason the roses at your door still look like the roses in the photograph.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a red roses bouquet mean?

How much is a bouquet of red roses?

It depends on the count and design. A classic dozen sits in the middle, a simple posy is more affordable, and a luxury 50 or 100-rose bouquet is a grand statement. Every bouquet on this page shows its current price, so you can choose what suits your budget and the moment.

How many red roses should I give?

A dozen red roses is the timeless romantic choice. Twenty-four says deeply devoted, and 50 or 100 mark a milestone like an engagement or a landmark anniversary. A single red rose is a sweet, simple way to say love at first sight. Our florists can build any count.
