1001 roses in a basket

Red roses are a classic symbol of strong emotions. Such a bouquet is appropriate for an anniversary, a wedding, or a day when you want to declare your love in a particularly grand way. The basket doesn't require a vase: the flowers sit in floral foam that retains moisture, so the arrangement can be placed on a table or presented to the recipient right away.

Care is simple: add a little water directly to the foam to keep it moist, and don't trim the stems—this way the arrangement will keep its shape longer.
