The Best Valentine Day Flower

This is our number one choice - the rose being the preferred Valentine Day flower for millions the world over.

It's pricey - anywhere from $30 to $60 - but well worth it. For pure jaw-dropping effect it can not be matched. And - it's perfect even for those lovers who are sensitive to real flowers!

The stem is coated in 24K gold, and the flower lovingly preserved in three colors - pink, red, or for the ultimate bling : gold on gold.

Now if it were me, I'd go for the luscious red with 24K gold trim. That ought to be the ultimate Valentine Day Flower.

If the gold rose isn't quite what you had in mind, then there is the venerable Valentine Bouquet. Now, some people think this is more of a Mother's Day gift, but it can still be super-sexy and super-romantic.

You've just gotta mix it up a bit.

Think Valentine Day flowers plus some lingerie (with flowers on), candles (in the form of a flower), and chocolates in a heart shaped box.

Now, that's a Valentine Day gift basket you can be proud of.

(There's also a ...ahem... steamy version for playful lovers, but that's on another page.)

An important point - make sure you use either an FTD registered flower shop, or Interflora, to get those flowers delivered. These flower shops are generally more reliable; that said, if you pass by your local florist, order flowers and pick them up, that's always the safest bet.

Finally, guess what? Amazon does flowers too. Below, you can find a selection of flowers, in baskets, that Amazon can get to your loved one. Perfect if you're not able to be with them on this special day...
