Are you looking for fresh or silk? For fresh I'd try looking under wholesale florists in your area. Then find a friend who has a business license and have them buy for you. Buying retail around that time of year is huge $$. We have a craft store called Michael's here in the Seattle area, they give us a great deal on silk roses for the father dauther-valentine dance, around 45cents each.

Costco will order them.

Not during a holiday.. especially not Valentines day.. I am the flower vendor at Coscto.

Special order are anytime of the year except 2 weeks for and 1 week after a holiday. So in February, they only time you will be able to get a special order is from the 22nd to the 28th.

Roses are now $14.99 for 2 dozen (price went up $2.00 a few months ago).

During Valentines Day they cut them down to 1 dozen. I am not sure of the price this year since we have the price change but last year they were $13.49 for 1 Dozen compared to $12.99 for 2 dozen.

I am looking for fresh, I would like around 1000 petals and probably 150-200 roses. I have been looking on bigrose.com - I just wondered if I could get it for less than $200....

the petals will be scattered up the walk and driveway, all over the tables and hopefully the finished pool but I am not holding my breath on the last one.
