No, but know what you're doing. Red roses are Valentine's insurance - nobody questions red roses. Pink flowers work for newer relationships. Tulips or mixed bouquets for people who think roses are basic. Orchids if you're fancy. But here's the thing - if they're expecting red roses and you send daisies to be unique, that's a conversation. Blushing Flowers in Bradenton suggests knowing your audience. Some people want tradition on Valentine's Day, others appreciate creativity. When in doubt, roses are safe.
Now. Seriously, if you're reading this in February, order now. Blushing Flowers in Bradenton, FL runs out of red roses by February 12th every year. Prices jump the closer you get to the 14th. February 14th itself? Good luck - it's whatever's left at premium panic prices. Smart people order in late January. Normal people order February 1st-7th. Procrastinators pay double on February 13th. February 14th orders are basically floral emergency services. Order early or pay the procrastination tax.
Supply, demand, and the price of relationship preservation. Everyone wants red roses on the exact same day. Growers charge more, wholesalers charge more, Blushing Flowers needs extra drivers and longer hours. It's like surge pricing but with flowers. A dozen roses that costs in March might hit on Valentine's Day. In Bradenton, add competition from every other person trying not to sleep on the couch. Yes, it's a racket. No, you can't skip it. That's Valentine's economics.
Classic trap. Some genuinely mean it, most are testing you. Blushing Flowers has delivered I said no flowers flowers all over Bradenton to people who were thrilled they didn't listen. If they truly hate flowers, get a plant - technically not flowers. Or send flowers to their office so coworkers see - different dynamic. The only people who really mean no flowers already explicitly told you they're allergic or have cats that eat them. Everyone else? They want flowers but don't want to seem high-maintenance. Send the flowers.
