Vibrant Rose Bouquet

The Vibrant Rose Bouquet: 45 Multicoloured Roses, Hand-Tied in South Africa

Forty-five roses do not arrive quietly. The Vibrant Rose Bouquet is a hand-tied armful of red, lilac, orange and cerise stems, wrapped in our signature cellophane, and built to make the person holding it stop mid-sentence. It is the bouquet for the moment that needs to be bigger than a card. A milestone birthday. A long-awaited yes. A real apology. An anniversary that has earned more than the usual dozen. We arrange every Vibrant Rose Bouquet by hand at our Claremont studio, with stems sourced from South African rose growers we have worked with for years.

With 5,800+ reviews across Google, Trustpilot and Loox, we have been doing this since 1999. Order before 12pm Monday to Saturday for same-day delivery in Cape Town and Johannesburg.

What's In The Vibrant Rose Bouquet

• 45 multicoloured roses, hand-selected on the morning of delivery.
• Red roses, the classic of every romantic flower gesture.
• Orange roses, vivid, warm and generous.
• Lilac roses, soft, unexpected, quietly elegant.
• Cerise roses, the bright pink that lifts the whole bouquet.
• Cellophane wrap, water-source preserved at the stems.
• Hand-written gift card, your message inside.

Rose varieties and exact shades may vary by season. We substitute only with same-tone, same-quality South African stems. The bouquet always arrives as 45 roses across the same four-colour palette.

The Meaning Behind Each Colour

Half the gift is the flowers. The other half is what each colour says. Red roses are the language of love and passion. Orange roses signal enthusiasm, gratitude, and the kind of pride you feel for someone who just pulled it off. Lilac roses are for love at first sight and the slightly mysterious feeling that came with it. Cerise roses speak admiration and joy. Together, you are sending all four at once, which is exactly why this bouquet works for so many different occasions. If you would like the full picture of what each shade carries, our guide to the symbolic meaning of flowers walks through every colour in detail.

When To Send The Vibrant Rose Bouquet

This is a bouquet that punches above its weight. Send it as a milestone birthday flower, an anniversary arrangement worth photographing, a "you got the job" gesture, or a Valentine's gift that does not look like every other Valentine's gift on the street. Read more in our short love-story feature, or browse the full luxury flower bouquet range if you want something even larger. For something quieter and more focused, the Pink Expression Bouquet and the Sparkling Orange Bouquet are softer single-tone alternatives, and the Florist's Choice Bouquet hands the design over to us.

Forty-five roses in red, lilac, orange and cerise. The bouquet does the talking before you have to.

Cape Town and Johannesburg Same-Day Delivery

Order before 12pm Monday to Saturday for same-day delivery anywhere in Cape Town from our Claremont and Sea Point studios, and anywhere in our Johannesburg delivery network. After 12pm orders are scheduled for the next available day. We deliver to homes, offices, hospitals, hotels, and wedding venues. If you need a same-day option but are still browsing, our full same-day flower delivery page lists every bouquet that qualifies before tomorrow morning. Looking for a flower shop near you or a working florist in Cape Town? You have found one.

How To Make Your Roses Last

Trim each stem at a 45-degree angle under running water before placing in a clean vase with the sachet of flower food we provide. Top up the water every two days, keep the bouquet out of direct sunlight and away from the fruit bowl (ripening fruit shortens vase life). With this care, the Vibrant Rose Bouquet holds beautifully for five to seven days, and we back that with a 5-day freshness guarantee on every fresh-stem order.

Why Order Roses From Fabulous Flowers

We have been a working florist since 1999, with two Cape Town studios (Claremont and Sea Point) and a Johannesburg delivery network. We hand-tie every roses bouquet and arrange every dozen of red roses ourselves, source from South African growers, and quality-check every stem before it goes into the cellophane. For something bigger or for a vase arrangement, see our full flower bouquet range. If you are sending Vibrant Rose Bouquets across multiple weddings or events, our Cape Town wedding venue guide covers the spaces we deliver to most often.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many roses are in the Vibrant Rose Bouquet?

Forty-five hand-selected roses in red, lilac, orange and cerise, wrapped together as one large statement bouquet. The size makes it a true two-handed bouquet, designed to be photographed.

What do the different rose colours mean?

Red roses symbolise love and passion. Orange roses represent enthusiasm and gratitude. Lilac roses signal love at first sight and a touch of mystery. Cerise roses convey admiration and joy. Sending all four at once covers every reason for the bouquet, which is why it works so well for milestone moments.

Can I add a vase to the bouquet?

Fabulous Flowers and Gifts Fresh Flowers Care Instructions

Fresh Flowers

Find a Vase: Your lovely blooms need a drink! Put them in your favourite vase with fresh water as soon as possible.

Trim Those Stems: Keep those stems fresh by cutting them at an angle. This allows more water up the stem. Checking and trimming the stems every few days will keep them sound.

Gently Strip Leaves: Remove any excess leaves, especially from the part of the stem that will be submerged. This helps to avoid rot and bacteria, which can shorten your flowers' life span.

Remove Old Blooms: Drooping flowers release ethylene gas, which may accelerate the aging of other flowers. Strip off any dead or dying flowers to keep the rest of the bouquet looking bright and fresh.

Keep Them Cool: Place your flowers away from heat sources such as heaters, televisions, or ovens to retain the beauty of your flowers.

Clean Water: Always place your flowers in clean water. Refresh your vase with water daily or at least every second day. 

Gift Boxes

Storage Tips: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to keep contents in perfect condition.

Handling with Care: Handle this box gently so as not to damage the delicate items inside.

Freshening: If your gift includes foods or beverages, please refer to the individual product use-by and expiry dates and the informational materials regarding storage recommendations:

Plants

Watering: Ensure your plants are hydrated but avoid overwatering. Check the soil's moisture regularly and water it when the top inch feels dry.

Light: Place your plants in a spot where they receive the appropriate amount of light. Some prefer bright, indirect light, while others thrive in low-light conditions.

Feeding: Feed your plants with a balanced fertiliser every few weeks during the growing season to keep them healthy and vibrant.

Pruning: Regularly remove dead leaves and trim back overgrown branches to encourage new growth and maintain the plant's shape.

Humidity: Some plants thrive in high humidity. If needed, mist your plants occasionally or place a humidifier nearby to create a favourable environment.

Artificial Flowers and Plants

Dusting: Your artificial flowers and botanicals should be lightly dusted regularly with a soft cloth or feather duster.

Light Washing: For deeper cleaning, please use a cloth lightly dampened with water and a small amount of mild detergent. Gently wipe the leaves and petals.

Avoid Direct: Sunlight Do not place under direct sunlight in order to prevent colours from fading.

Fluff and Arrange: Just fluff up petals and leaves to remain fluffy. Set them in position as desired to look natural.

Personalize: Gift your flowers, Gift Boxes, and Artificial Flowers and Plants with the Care They Deserve; they will be a Source of Joy and Elegance for you. The charm of fresh flowers, the delight of a thoughtful gift box, and the endless beauty of an artificial plant—all special moments created by Fabulous Flowers and Gifts.

Please Note: Due to the seasonal nature of flowers and availability of specific items, the contents of our bouquets and gift boxes may vary throughout the year. We strive to substitute any unavailable items with products of equal or greater value, ensuring that every gift you receive is fresh, beautiful, and of the highest quality. Thank you for your understanding and for choosing us to celebrate your special moments.
