UK: 11 best Valentine’s Day flowers

Valentine’s Day is just around the corner and the UK’s top online florists are hard at work creating stunning new ranges of flowers, ready for the annual celebration of love.

From traditional red roses to pretty-as-a-picture tulips, flowers are the perfect way to tell your heart’s desire how much you love them. To help you choose, this article has rounded up the best Valentine’s Day bouquets of the year. The arrangements are all hand-tied so you can pop them straight into a vase without any faff.

The middle of February isn’t just for couples, so If you aren’t a fan of Valentine’s Day you could always celebrate Galentine’s Day instead. Held on February 13th, the day before Valentine’s Day, Galentine’s Day is a chance to show your friends how much they mean to you and thank them there for you in good times and in bad.

When it comes to looking after your blooms, there’s plenty of top-notch advice to help. Wild at Heart advises cutting each flower stem at an angle with scissors, leaving your flowers tied together so the arrangement stays in place, using a Milton sterilising tablet in the flower water to keep it free from bacteria, placing your flowers away from direct sunlight and changing the water every few days.
