What are eternal roses?

Eternal roses, also known as preserved roses, are natural flowers that have undergone an innovative preservation process to maintain their freshness, texture, and beauty for a long period of time, without the need for water or special care. Unlike fresh roses, which have a limited lifespan of only a few days, eternal roses can stay in perfect condition for months or even years.

The preservation process:

• Each flower is cut when it is at its most beautiful and colourful in Verdissimo’s own fields which are specifically dedicated to the cultivation of plants and flowers.
• The stems of the recently cut flowers are immediately submerged in a conserving substance which is made from glycerine and other plant components.
• The sap of the flower is gradually replaced by the liquid until after a few days the process is complete.
• Then, each flower is examined to remove damaged petals or leaves. The result is a perfect flower, extremely beautiful with a fantastic colour.

How is an eternal rose made?

The secret of eternal roses lies in their delicate preservation process, which captures and maintains their maximum beauty for long periods of time. This technique is 100% natural, carried out in several stages, ensuring that each flower retains its natural texture, color, and freshness. Below, we explain step by step how they are made:

Selection at the peak of splendor

Each eternal rose is harvested at its optimal point of color and beauty. At Verdissimo, the flowers are grown in our own fields dedicated exclusively to cultivating high-quality plants and flowers, certified by Florverde, ensuring that only the best roses undergo the preservation process.

Immersion in a preserving solution

Once harvested, the stems of the freshly cut roses are immediately immersed in a preservative solution made of glycerin and other plant-based compounds. This liquid gradually replaces the natural sap of the flower, ensuring the petals and stem maintain their flexibility and fresh appearance.

Complete sap replacement
Over several days, the preservative liquid gradually replaces the entire sap of the rose. This process is key to maintaining the structure and natural texture of the flower, keeping it flawless for years.

Review and perfection

After the preservation process is complete, each flower undergoes a thorough inspection to remove any petals or leaves that may have been damaged. This ensures that the final result is a perfect rose, with a captivating color and impeccable appearance.
The result is a rose that combines the best of nature and technology, ideal for decorating and preserving special moments.

Advantages of Eternal or Preserved Roses

Eternal roses, also known as preserved roses, offer a number of benefits that make them a unique and attractive alternative to fresh flowers:

• Exceptional durability: These flowers maintain their flawless appearance for months or even years, while a fresh rose lasts only a few days.
• Minimal care: They require no water, sunlight, or fertilizers, making them perfect for those with little time or looking for low-maintenance décor.
• Sustainability: Thanks to their long lifespan, they reduce the need to purchase flowers frequently, contributing to a lower environmental impact.
• Decorative versatility: Their variety of colors and sizes makes them an ideal option for any type of decoration or event

The Saint Valentine’s day legend

According to legend, the emperor Claudio II prohibited young people from getting married as he believed if they were free from ties, they would compete better in the battlefields.

Valentine was a prestigious priest from Rome who defied this prohibition and continued to marry young couples, unbeknownst to the emperor. When the emperor found out, he was livid and sent Valentine to prison. Behind bars, he performed the miracle of restoring the sight of the daughter of one of the prison guards. After this happened, all of the guard’s family converted to Christianity, but they could not stop the furious emperor from ordering Valentine’s execution on the 14^th of February.

The young girl whose sight had been restored by Valentine planted an almond tree in front of his grave. Since then, flowers have become the symbol of friendship and love. The 14^th of February, Lovers’ Day, is celebrated all over the world.

The custom of giving flowers has survived since then. Now, the most popular flowers on the 14^th of February are red roses, the quintessential flowers of passion and love.

Each rose colour is associated with certain characteristics: pink-happiness, orange-friendship, blue-peace and red-passion.

Ideas for flowers on Valentine’s Day

In this section of the article, we’ll give you a few ideas for floral arrangements on Valentine’s Day to surprise your partner with a well-decorated romantic dinner.

Before giving you ideas for Valentine’s Day, it’s important you understand that a romantic dinner involves many things: from good food to good drinks, good music and a good atmosphere.

Floral arrangements play an important role in this last aspect, since they’re capable of harmonizing spaces and giving them a romantic and chic touch.

We’ll mention a few floral arrangements that may help you below.

Floral arrangements with roses

Floral arrangements with roses are always a hit. Especially if you want to create a boho and passionate atmosphere. Roses are a good way to represent the love between you and your partner on Valentine’s Day.

In the image below, we’ll show you an example of one of the floral arrangements with red roses that we’ve made at Verdissimo.

Floral arrangements that combine products

What do you think about combining different flowers of the same color? You can choose your partner’s favorite color or a color that symbolizes something special and create a nice composition.

In the example we’ve added below, the color pink is the key to this romantic floral arrangement.

Floral arrangements with greenery and flowers

If you want to create a more natural atmosphere on Valentine’s Day, the best idea is to combine flowers with greenery.

This type of floral arrangement is much more casual and fresh and also very simple. You only have to choose flowers that you like best and combine them with filler flowers or greenery, placing them in a pot or vase made of materials such as wood or metal.

If your partner is a lover of romantic and country-style decoration, this is a great idea.

In the image below, we’ll show you an example of a floral arrangement that combines preserved flowers with greenery.

Floral Arrangements for Lovers

Floral arrangements for lovers often feature flowers like red roses, a universal symbol of passionate love, accompanied by lilies representing purity and beauty. Peonies, with their lush petals, symbolize marital happiness and good fortune, while orchids evoke delicate and luxurious love.

Ideas for wreaths on Valentine’s Day

If the ideas for flowers we’ve given you above don’t convince you and you want to be a little more original this year, we suggest you turn to wreaths. This gift not only can decorate your partner’s home, but also is an accessory.

Wreaths have become very stylish in recent years and many women turn to them for numerous events and also for decorating both the walls of a home, as well as the entryway and other doors in the house.

Wreaths can be made with flowers such as roses or gardenias, or even lavender and other products. As we’ve mentioned previously, it’s important that you keep in mind the meaning you want to convey in order to choose the most suitable plants and flowers for Valentine’s Day.

Flower arrangements with hydrangeas

Hydrangeas are ideal flowers for making floral arrangements. On Valentine’s Day you can use them in pastel colours to create cosy and romantic atmospheres. For example: in white or pink, those colours that symbolize femininity and purity.

In the following image we show you an example of a floral arrangement with hydrangeas for Valentine’s Day.

Simple floral arrangements for Valentine’s Day

Floral arrangements do not always require technique and effort. You can make some simple country-looking ones to create a cosy farmhouse environment. One of the products you can use is preserved lavender. Display it in a glass or a wooden vase to give the rustic touch you want to give to your Valentine’s Day decor.

Flower arrangements with Chrysanthemums

Chrysanthemums also get people talking. With them you can make beautiful romantic floral arrangements for this wonderful day. You can use them to create centrepieces or simply to decorate some areas of the place where you want to dine with your partner. They are beautiful and very symbolic flowers. We love them!

Floral arrangements in ‘goldfish bowls’

Floral arrangements placed inside goldfish bowl-shaped containers are another floral arrangement option that you can use as a centrepiece on Valentine’s Day. Inside the ‘goldfish bowl’ you can place any flower that you want. In the following image we show you an example:

Flower arrangements with orchids

Flower arrangements with orchids are a must-have. They are flowers with positive meanings and selecting the right ones… you’ll be sure to get it right! We recommend using colours related to love and depending on the style of floral arrangement you want, it is advisable to combine them with other products or not. For example: for Nordic-style decoration, it is sufficient to make an arrangement with orchids only.

Flower arrangements with carnations

Carnations are ideal flowers to tell your partner how you feel about her, how special she is to you, and how much you love her. It is most common to tell her with red carnations, although in Verdissimo you can find many other colours to create dreamy floral arrangements for Valentine’s Day.

In the following image, we show you an example of a floral arrangement with pink and white carnations.

Single-colour flower arrangements

Single-colour floral arrangements are a classic choice. These types of floral arrangements are made with red flowers, as this colour is the universal symbol of passion and love. Most commonly, these arrangements are made with roses or by combining roses with other types of flowers. Roses are so beautiful that sometimes like Valentine’s Day they don’t need any extras, so… say it with a floral arrangement in this style!

How to Make a Floral Arrangement for Valentine’s Day?

Valentine’s Day is the perfect occasion to express our feelings through meaningful and personal gestures. And what could be more personal and heartfelt than a floral arrangement made by yourself? Whether you’re creating this arrangement for your partner, a friend, a family member, or simply to add a touch of beauty and love to your home, here are some Do It Yourself ideas for you to replicate whenever you want.

Preserved flowers on Valentine’s Day

As we’ve mentioned, flowers are a fantastic idea for Valentine’s Day. However, natural flowers don’t last over time, so this Valentine’s Day, even if you maintain them, they won’t last forever. For this reason, we recommend you bet on flowers and plants from Verdissimo. These flowers, though completely natural, have undergone a preservation process that makes them last over time, maintaining their beauty without needing light or water.

Giving preserved flowers on Valentine’s Day will make your partner remember your love for months, and even years.

What is Florverde

Sustainable floriculture with social responsibility, along with the pursuit of good agricultural practices, minimizing the use of agrochemicals, protecting fundamental rights of workers, product quality, and managerial responsibility, have been the goals of the Florverde Sustainable Flowers certification for the past 25 years. This program was created by the Colombian Association of Flower Exporters (ASOCOLFLORES, of which we are a part) as a tool to promote sustainable floriculture with social responsibility.

The Florverde certification is globally recognized as one of the highest standards in agricultural production.

What is it for?

The Florverde certification is globally recognized as one of the highest standards in agricultural production. Therefore, obtaining it is synonymous with good practices and high-quality processes.

It guarantees traceability and control over products, enhances competitiveness, and, finally, facilitates access to new markets.

We are very proud of this achievement because it once again demonstrates that we are constantly improving and progressing in our models of quality, social responsibility, and sustainable production.
