On Valentine's Day, flower prices—especially for roses—typically increase by 50% to 100% or more compared to regular prices. The surge is due to high demand, increased labor costs, and logistics challenges in sourcing and delivering fresh flowers.
A dozen roses that usually cost $20–$30 can rise to $50–$100+.
Wholesale prices can double or triple, impacting florists' costs.
Supermarket roses that cost $8 in the off-season can go up to $23+ before Valentine’s Day.
Gentleman - skip the flowers, I am sure she will understand!
