During a time when I worked but also grew flowers commercially sold 50 dozen small sweet mini rose posies and about 10 single long stems, but ironically the best seller that day was carnations which are virtually indestructible.

Happy belated valentine's day to you all, my friends.
I am not romantic and don't buy into St Commerce's feast.

One year we were aboard a long haul flight when Valentine's Day came. No roses but other passengers were amused when we gave each other cards.

About 25 years ago we grew flowers commercially and those not going to export or big city markets were sold from a stall on the local mall and i bought in stuff I didnt grow.. One year my order got mixed up as I finished up with 50 dozen mixed size roses. Sold every one.

Mrs Faz has reminded me of the year we were in Thailand. I don't remember which town but on Valentines they handed out condoms.
