From David Austin to Red Naomi: Popular varieties
If you'd like to buy red roses, you can choose from different growth forms, each giving a bouquet its own distinct character:
- Long-stemmed hybrid tea roses (60–80 cm): The icons of floristry. Majestic in appearance and ideal for the grandest gesture. Discover them in our single stems.
- Garden roses (e.g. David Austin): With their densely petalled, fragrant blooms, they resemble peonies. They bring a romantic vintage touch to any bouquet.
- Playful spray roses: These branched stems carry several small blooms at once. They add beautiful lightness to mixed bouquets.
- Premium variety Red Naomi: Famous for its rich red colour, intoxicating fragrance, and exceptionally long vase life. The ultimate Valentine's Day favourite.
Care tips: How to keep roses fresh for longer
It only takes a few simple steps to help the recipient enjoy their bouquet for as long as possible. With these tips, premium roses can stay radiant and beautiful for up to 14 days:
- Trim sharply: Use a clean, sharp knife (not scissors!) to cut the stems at an angle. This allows the water-conducting channels to absorb water optimally.
- Vase hygiene: Ideally, change the water every two days and clean the vase thoroughly. Bacteria are the biggest enemy of long-lasting flowers.
- Use flower food: Always add the flower food provided by your florist to the water.
- The right climate: Roses hate drafts, direct midday sun, and dry air from heating. A slightly cool spot is ideal.
- Keep fruit away: Never place flowers right next to a fruit bowl. Apples and bananas release ethylene gas, which causes blooms to wilt rapidly.
A little trick: if you place your roses somewhere cooler overnight, such as a hallway or a cool conservatory, you can often extend their vase life by several days!
