Roses are one of the most popular Valentine flowers but having an arrangement delivered can cost around $70 or more.
To lower costs, consider delivering the flowers yourself. Whole Foods Market has a Valentine's special on roses: two dozen for $19.99. Red roses are included.
At the Atlanta State Farmer's Market in Forest Park, National Floral Distributors is offering a great deal as well: two dozen roses for $14.99, though red roses are not included. "We have beautiful roses. We're a direct importer and we have all the pastels: peaches, pinks, yellows lavenders," said owner Herbert Grunberg. He said 2 dozen red roses are $29.99, $39.99 and $49.99 depending on the length of the stem and size of the roses.
