According to area florists, Valentines Day is the biggest single day of the year for sending flowers, and roses are by far the most popular flower to give. Roses have their own language says Toni Vendegnia-Wehuowner of Tonis Flower Villa in Clearfield. When men think of roses, they think of love. Sending roses is a very romantic thing to do. s, Unfortunately, this romantic gesture will leave a dent in the pocketbook. After calling several local florist ships, the Lakeside Review found prices of a dozen roses ranging from $37 to $47. Roses this time of year are really expensive, says Verg Glissman, owner of Vergs flower Shop in South Weber. They are the highest price that they ever get during the year. The demand is up, so the price that we pay goes up, explained Tina Sandall of Flowers by Candlelight in Layton. These costs are passed on to the customer.
