Roses

Can I send someone just roses without a gift box?

You can! Check out our 'Simply Roses' page to send stems of luxury roses on their own.

You can chose to send 9 or 12 stems of roses. They will be wrapped beautifully and presented in our Palette gift box.

Don't forget to add a gift message at checkout so they know who has treated them to the stunning blooms!

Which flowers will come in my Palette gift box.

Every palette gift box will include several stems of our luxury roses.

Our roses come in the prettiest varieties and shades of blush/ nude/ pink/ apricot depending on what’s the most beautiful each week.

Wherever possible, we will try to buy blousy, garden rose type varieties, as these are our personal favourite.

During the winter months, the variety of roses available is not as broad as in the warmer months. This isn’t to say their quality or beauty is any less.

How long should my roses last?

To make the most of your beautiful roses please follow our flower care steps, which can be found on the 'Our Roses' page on our website.

Each gift box is also sent out with rose care instructions to help you look after them.

Roses which have been cared for properly should last 5 days or even more.

Please be aware there are many variants (hot summer days/ central heating etc) which can affect the lifespan of a rose which makes it impossible to predict a set length of time.

What should I do with my roses when they arrive?

In order to get the best from your roses, it’s important to condition them as soon as you can. Please follow our flower care instructions thoroughly to ensure maximum life of your roses. These can be found on the OUR ROSES page. Each gift box will also include rose care instructions to help you look after them.

Your roses have travelled in special transportation gel, don’t worry if they look a bit droopy at first, they are just thirsty - after cutting, put them in clean, lukewarm water and add the flower food provided. They will perk up really quickly!

When will my roses fully bloom?

Your roses have travelled in special transportation gel, don’t worry if they look a bit droopy at first, they are just thirsty - after cutting, put them in clean, lukewarm water and add the flower food provided. They will perk up really quickly!

Don’t worry if your roses arrive with the outer petals looking tired and creased - these are just the ‘guard’ petals and are designed to protect the perfect inner petals - leaving them on, helps protect the main rose whilst travelling to you. Remove them to discover the unblemished inner petals and to allow the rose to open fully and bloom over the next few days.

Roses, like people, are not flawless - they have travelled on quite a journey, often from Africa or Ecuador all the way to you. It is completely natural there might be little imperfections but this does not mean they will be any less beautiful as they bloom. The different varieties of roses mean that some open up as they bloom as some will remain fairly closed during their lifespan.

We take every care possible from the moment they arrive with us to getting them to you, but please understand there might always be slight markings.
