Gilded roses, vintage bouquets or minimalist clusters – there’s one for every kind of romance.
The antidote to brighten up any ladies day – flowers! Be it pastel pink peonies, baby’s breath or the queen of them all – red roses – we will succumb to the beauty, freshness and smell of them, even when we say otherwise. The best part? You don’t have to be into floriculture or grow out a garden labyrinth, just a bouquet will do (we speak for every woman here!). This Valentine’s Day, forget searching for the coolest florist boutiques at every nook and corner of the city. Instead, let them come to you (or well, to your lady) with these 7 florists to keep in the know.
