6 Red Roses

Six red roses with silver dollar eucalyptus and mixed green foliage, hand tied and delivered by a partner florist on the day. $85.95 with same day delivery if you order before 2pm weekdays or 10am Saturdays. Vase not included.

The photo shows the arrangement as delivered. Your roses will be deep red with generous foliage. The exact stage of bloom, from tight bud to fully open, will depend on the stems available at market on the day. The vase shown is for display purposes and is not included.

What's In The Bunch

Six red roses. Deep crimson, some fully open with visible petal layers, others still partially furled. Silver dollar eucalyptus fills the space between stems with round silvery green leaves, and darker green foliage adds depth at the base. The foliage is generous, almost equal in volume to the roses themselves, and that's deliberate.

Six red roses is the most loaded gesture in floristry. It carries more expectation per stem than any other arrangement in the range. Rob sent them and called it "great flowers, lovely service, would recommend." Anthony said "my lady loves them." Parvi described "excellent service." The intent behind six red roses is almost always romantic, and the reviews reflect that.

Who Sends This One

Anthony's "my lady loves them" tells you the audience. Valentine's Day is the peak. Raymond ordered his around Valentine's, Rob the same week. Anniversaries and romantic gestures fill the rest of the year. For a wife's birthday, six red roses says something a mixed bunch doesn't.

Anthony also noted "some arrangements and gifts are not exactly as pictured but still nice." With a single flower type product, the main variation is bloom stage. Some days the florist will have roses that are tight and just starting to open. Other days they'll have fully open heads like the photo. Both are correct. A tighter rose will last longer in the vase. A more open rose makes an immediate impact. The florist selects the best available.

For red roses with more stems, browse our roses range. For red in a mixed arrangement with more flower types, our red flowers range includes combinations with lilies, gerberas, and carnations. For a romantic gesture that's less traditional, the Pink Roses and Lilies at $80.95 combines deep pink roses with stargazer lilies for intensity with fragrance. For something the florist chooses entirely, our florist's choice range lets them work with whatever is freshest.

Care

When the roses arrive, unwrap them, trim each stem at a forty five degree angle with sharp scissors, and strip every leaf below the waterline. Room temperature water for the first fill, about two thirds of the vase. Change it every two days for red roses. They're thirstier than most.

Red roses are sensitive to ethylene gas. Keep the vase away from the fruit bowl, away from the kitchen bench near ripening produce, and away from direct afternoon sun. Heat accelerates everything. A cool spot with indirect light will give you the longest display.

As the outer petals start to soften, you can gently peel them off to reveal fresher inner petals. A well conditioned red rose has multiple layers. Removing the tired outer guard petals can add two or three extra days to the display and refresh the appearance.

If any stem starts to wilt while the others are still holding, cut another centimetre off the base, put it in warm water on its own for an hour, then return it to the vase. Sometimes a fresh cut clears the blockage in the vascular system and the stem recovers.

Substitution Policy

Red roses are available at Australian flower markets every day of the year. This is the one product where substitution should almost never happen. The florist will always deliver red roses. The variables are bloom stage (tight bud to fully open), exact shade of red (which can range from bright cherry to deep burgundy depending on the variety), and stem length. The foliage may vary between silver dollar eucalyptus, standard eucalyptus, and other seasonal greenery, but the structural frame will always be generous. Six red roses will always be six red roses. If for any reason the florist can't source stems that meet their standard, they'll contact us before proceeding. Call 1300 360 469 if you have a preference for bloom stage or shade of red.
