When it comes to Valentine's Day flowers or anniversary flowers, you can't go wrong with giving a traditional arrangement of a dozen red roses accented with baby's breath (gypsophilia). The following video gives step by step instructions on how to arrange a dozen roses in a vase.
This video uses red freedom roses, gypsophilia, tree fern (Asparagus), and leather leaf (Rumohra). You can obtain these supplies at your local florist. Grocery stores often have great floral departments where you can also buy these supplies individually.
The cheapest place to buy a glass floral vase is at a thrift store. If you can't find what you're looking for there, try the floral department at your local grocery store, they usually have the best selection this time of year. Another way to obtain nice floral vases is to order flowers online, and include a vase in your order or go to your local florist. Of course, if you have an account with a flower wholesaler, you can also get great deals on vases from them as well.
