Sleaford, Lincolnshire, UK (PRWeb) February 11, 2007 -- When Interflora has over 100 ways men and women can treat someone they love, whatever else they might forget, there's no reason to forget the Valentine's flowers (http://www.interflora.co.uk/catalog/category.xml?category_id=1000333&utm_source=PRWeb&utm_medium=PR&utm_campaign=Valentines&utm_content=Valentines-flowers) on the most romantic day of the year.

With Valentine's Day (http://www.interflora.co.uk/page.xml?page_id=2131813&utm_source=PRWeb&utm_medium=PR&utm_campaign=Valentines&utm_content=Valentines-Day) not far away, there's still time to treat the love of a life to a beautiful bouquet of flowers.

Back in the days of the Romans, many young men met their partners by drawing a girls name from a box as part of the pagan celebration of Lupercalia. Years later, because this practice was thought a little un-Christian, the tradition changed and the names of saints were drawn instead and the game was to emulate the ways of the saint. Not surprisingly this game proved a lot less fun.

Although the lottery for women was banned by the church, the holiday in commemoration of St. Valentine was still used by Roman men to seek the affection of women and it became a tradition for the men to give the ones they admired handwritten messages of affection, containing St. Valentine's name.

The first Valentine card grew out of this practice and February 14th has since become the day for declaring your love by exchanging love messages, poems or small gifts such as a bouquet of Valentine's flowers.

Red roses are thought to have been the favourite flower of Venus the goddess of love and it's because of this that they have become the most popular gift to give on Valentine's Day. Whether you want to romance the love-of-your-life with a dozen roses (http://www.interflora.co.uk/catalog/product.xml?product_id=2045560;category_id=1000333&utm_source=PRWeb&utm_medium=PR&utm_campaign=Valentines&utm_content=dozen-roses), surprise someone with a single red rose (http://www.interflora.co.uk/catalog/product.xml?product_id=2045520;category_id=1000333&utm_source=PRWeb&utm_medium=PR&utm_campaign=Valentines&utm_content=single-red-rose) or bowl someone over with the ultimate gift of 100 exquisite long-stemmed red roses (http://www.interflora.co.uk/catalog/product.xml?product_id=2045620;category_id=1000333&utm_source=PRWeb&utm_medium=PR&utm_campaign=Valentines&utm_content=red-roses), Interflora have a rose bouquet to celebrate the event.

And for those looking for something a little different, a bottle of champagne, a balloon bouquet or a delicious box of chocolates would also make the perfect romantic gesture.

To make choosing easy, Interflora has put together a fitting range of flowers and luxury gifts to help you spoil someone on this, the most romantic day of the year.
