What Is The Average Red Rose Price? 

Roses, much like any other beautiful thing in life can be quite pricey. This makes getting roses for Valentine’s a bit of a dread for anyone on the gifting side. But don’t lose hope, there are multiple factors that contribute to this. It’s about knowing your budget and shopping for what fits. There’s a gorgeous bouquet for every price range. Let’s get into what makes these flowers a little pricey when you reach the checkout point: 

  • Rose Quantity
    The price of your bouquet is primarily affected by the quantity. A 12 rose bouquet can start from R349.95 while a 50 rose bouquet can sum up to a whopping R1499.95. In essence, what you pay for the spoil depends on how grand you want your gesture to be.
