It might sound cheap but from the look of the picture they'll be the small bunched roses. I'd be very surprised if they're a proper length as even M&S cant buy them that cheap at Valentines!

redfox

well, they do say length isn't everything http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/images/smilies/wink.gif


If somebody sent me a dozen red roses on V Day I wouldn''t be worrying about the stem length - it's the thought that counts!

Tesco are doing a dozen for £20 too, looks like a price way is about to start, interflora are currently way off the pace (v v v expensive)

Not before time! Flowers are generally very expensive anyway but at the strategic dates in the year (Valentine's, Mother's Day...) they become even more of a ripoff :rolleyes:

I work in an Interflora shop so I know how expensive they are but at least if you order the set items you're guaranteed the best quality roses available.

Blame the Dutch! Its the growers who put the prices up, not the wholesalers or the florists.
