Valentines Day with Eternal Petals!
Are you looking for that perfect unique gift for the love of your life? Trying to think of a good gift for that special someone who maybe isn’t quite that special yet? Want to get a nice valentines gift for your bestie? Scoured the shelves of Harrods or Selfridges and still haven’t found what you’re looking for? Running out of time and starting to panic? Your search is over. At Eternal Petals we believe in love that lasts for an eternity. What better way to celebrate that love than with a rose that lasts for at least a year (or longer). They are unique and thoughtful and can be customised by you for your special someone. We have many options you can go for. They include Solos, Quartets, Square and Round boxes. If you want something to represent that one and only person in your life consider a Solo. Our Solo is a rose of your choice inside a gorgeous crystal clear container. We have a vast selection of rose colours available. Maybe red isn’t you and your love’s colour? We have gorgeous shades of blue, green, pink and even satin shades to recognise a few. Maybe you’re not so confident in your special someone’s affection? Our customised Solo is subtle enough that if they end up not reciprocating that adoration you’re not going to find yourself in hopefully too awkward a situation. You could simply give them a Sweetheart white gold Solo. It’s sweet and subtle - the perfect luxury gift. Maybe you are confident in their feelings for you and want to give them a huge declaration of your love you could try our Deep Love solo with Swarovski dream, a Swarovski crystal in the centre and customised initials on the solo edge. If you wanted to go a step further you could give them one of our Quartets. This is four of our roses inside a slightly larger clear container so you can have every single view our beautiful roses. These can be customised just like our Solos. We also have available - for those who are madly in love and will spare no expense for their special someone, those that want to make the grandest gesture possible, besides proposing - our square and round boxes. Our square box is available in a black, white or marble velvet finish. We have available the option to customise the box by adding initials - yours or your loves or even both your letters - with a pearl, rainbow Swarovski crystal and also a clear Swarovski crystal. You can then choose 16 roses, we have the option of one or two colours for the square box. If you want to take it an extra step further you can add a Swarovski crystal to the centre of four, eight, or sixteen roses. We recommend one on each rose so that none of them feel left out, it is after all Valentines Day! We also have the option of our round box - a selection of 11-14 of our nicest roses in a black suede finish round box. Like our square boxes we have the option of adding Swarovski crystals to the centre of either six or twelve roses. Again, we would recommend, should you choose this option, to add one to all of them. Not to mention you can choose the option of adding glitter to any of the roses in our products. This adds an extra glimmer to our Solos and Quartets - especially when they are in the sunlight. On our boxes the roses stand out beautifully and sparkle like diamonds in the sun. Perfect for those who are blinded by love. Eternal Petals roses are the perfect luxury gift for anyone in your life. You could get one for your mum or your close friend. Perhaps that lonely person in your life who may need some cheering up on this cupid’s holiday. An Eternal Petals rose is a great gift and a lovely gesture that says you are my dearest friend and I care about you. Consider our Bumblebee Solo - yellow is after all known to be synonymous with friendship. It can be customised with a Swarovski crystal at the centre of the rose or you could put their initials on the side of the Solo. We hope you have a wonderful and romantic Valentines Day and with the help of Eternal Petals that it is even better!

Plus, they’re timeless beauties that will never go out of style. Although roses are one of the most well-known flowers around the world, we bet there are a few interesting facts about this English bud that you would never have guessed. Here are just ten of our favourites. 1. The rose is England’s traditional national flower. Since the time of the War of the Roses (1455), the rose has been the emblem of England. Specifically, the Tudor Rose. 2. 55 million roses are sent every Valentine’s Day in the UK. Let that number sink in. That’s a lot of roses we love to send to one another every single year on one day! 3. The fruit of a rose is called the rosehip. This ingredient is used frequently in beauty products as well as cooking in jams and preserves. It’s rich in vitamin C which makes it key for both foods and skincare. 4.

From Bon Jovi’s Bed of Roses and Seal’s Kiss from a Rose to A Rose is Still a Rose by Aretha Franklin, there are thousands of songs through history all about our beloved rose. 5. History says roses symbolised secrecy. Roses were worn around the neck in the time of the Romans. Men would discuss private matters “under the rose” and this would then be considered a sworn secret by those involved. Also known by the Latin phrase, sub rosa. 6. Archaeology shows that roses have been around for over 35 million years. This was discovered after finding a rose fossil in Colorado confirming it to be one of our oldest blooms. 7. Roses smell good for a reason. Roses have microscopic perfume glands which makes them perfect to use as a scent. The fragrance is released from these tiny glands which are found on the petal’s surface. But did you know, 25% of rose species have no scent at all? 8. Roses are very symbolic. Each colour means something different. Red means love. Yellow means friendship or congratulations. Orange roses represent desire. Hot pink roses mean gratitude while baby pink roses mean femininity and grace. White roses mean purity or innocence. Black roses symbolise rebirth. 9. Blue roses are quite new. In 2004, rose growers and enthusiasts managed to create the world’s first-ever blue rose after years of trying. 20. There are over 100 species of rose. Did you think a rose was just a rose?

Add a Touch of Luxury to The Bathroom The bathroom can often be an overlooked room when it comes to finishing touches, such as flowers. You might adore adding flowers to every room in the house but for some reason, when it comes to the bathroom, it gets left behind. Contemporary trends are seeing more and more plants and greenery within bathroom interior design. And why not add roses as well? Beautiful neutral colours, such as white and green roses are the perfect option for a bathroom or because our boxes of roses are longer lasting, why not coordinate with one of the colours already in your bathroom for perfect harmony?

Simple, easy changes can make all the difference in a space. And adding one of these 6 interior décor accessories trends can instantly transform your room.

Think moody watercolours and antique portraits and you’re on the right track. How to make it modern? Whether you buy an antique-style print from new or the real deal, display them in a simple and contemporary frame instead of an intricate antique frame and you’ve created the 2020 take on artwork. Extra Large Planters Greenery and artificial plants have been having a moment in interior trends for quite some time. More than a moment, in fact. But this season, planters are taking the lead. And they’re huge. To get this trend just right, think the bigger, the better. Huge, oversized and exaggerated indoor planters are a big look. Fill them with olive trees or dainty Italian-style plants for the perfect on-trend finish. Rattan Accessories Rattan is the new fabric in interiors. And accessories in rattan is one of the biggest trends for this year. Woven rattan baskets and storage pieces have been taking the spotlight for a while but this season, take it even further. Discover rattan accents, such as lampshades and mirrors and layer them with other neutral hues for a luxe take on natural modern style. Navy Blue Accents The colour of the moment? It’s still navy. Grey is still a big factor for interior design. But deep and rich navy blue might just be taking the lead. If you’re not ready for a navy-blue feature wall, you can create this trend in your home through accessories. Think luxe, textured throws, cushions and even features like mirrors and navy picture frames. Adding coordinating navy accents throughout a space, brings the room together while keeping your home on-trend. Plaster Finishes This year, plaster is in. While having Parisian-style bare plaster walls might not be an option for everyone, you can inject this look with just a few minimal plaster accessories and features. Think artwork, sculptures and lampshades crafted in neutral-hued plaster for the perfect look.

Real Roses That Last a Year – How Is This Possible?
Can Roses Really Last a Whole Year? Everyone loves real roses. The problem? No matter how well you take care of them and how much sunshine they get from sitting on a table or window sill, they can’t last. Sooner than you’d like, they start to wilt and you have to head out to the shops to replace them with fresh ones. And that’s why people are turning to long-lasting roses. Or year-long roses, as they are also known. These roses are real and yet they last for a WHOLE YEAR. But how? At Eternal Petals, we worked with our rose experts to create the ideal solution to wilting roses. By preserving them at their peak, we have created a way to keep them at their best for a year. Which means once you’ve found a bouquet you love, you can enjoy them for much longer. We start with sourcing the best roses Our roses aren’t just any other roses. We source the best quality roses from our expert rose partners in South America. The farm we are partnered with carefully grow our beautiful roses and cut them by hand to ensure they are protected from the moment they are parted from the ground. Cutting them in perfect bloom promises that the roses you have in your box or vase for a whole year are always at their peak. We then quickly preserve the roses Preserving the roses at their peak comes next. This has to be done quickly to promise a beautiful bloom for as long as possible. How does it work? Alongside our expert partners, we have created a preservation formula that is applied to each rose by hand individually. Crafted from a combination of all-natural oils and non-toxic wax, this formula ‘freezes’ the rose in time, as it is. In it’s perfectly bloomed state. Adding this formula to each rose stops them from growing any further. But it also stops them from wilting or dying. While doing this, the special formula has been designed to maintain each rose’s texture and hand-feel. So, you won’t find the roses are stiff or crispy. They are just as soft and luxurious as a rose that is still growing in your garden. We also have a state-of-the-art colour pigmentation process which guarantees whichever incredible colour you choose also lasts the whole year without fading. The final touches Preserving the roses in their perfect bloom isn’t the end of the journey at Eternal Petals. We also take huge pride in the presentation of our roses.

5 Reasons We All Need Longer Lasting Roses
At Eternal Petals, we’re pretty big fans of our longer lasting roses. It kind of goes without saying. However, we also believe that longer lasting roses are something for absolutely everyone to enjoy and there are many reasons why. From their stunning colour options to the chic and overtly stylish display choices, we all need longer lasting roses. Here, we take a look at just a few reasons why. It’s the On-Trend, Contemporary Way to Gift Flowers Gifting the people we love flowers on special occasions, when they feel unwell, or just to let them know we’re thinking of them has been a societal tradition for hundreds of years. However, as with all things, traditions move on and longer lasting roses is the natural progression of flower giving with a modern twist. Who Needs the Hassle of Regular Roses? Pretty much everyone loves to receive flowers, right? But who really wants to refresh the water and clean out the vase, add flower food and after only a week head out to the green bins to throw away yet another bunch of dead flowers? With longer lasting roses, there’s just so little maintenance that the convenience of them is undeniable and amongst their main selling points. You Can Find Longer Lasting Roses in So Many Colours Sure, if you head into your local flower shop, you’re sure to find some sort of bright hue or unusual shade. But when it comes to longer lasting roses, the colour options available are breathtaking. From classic reds and neutrals to the bright and boldest palettes you can imagine, one year roses are the perfect choice for a statement floral display. Add Roses to Your Interior Design Adding beautiful flowers can complete an interior design space flawlessly. However, since no two bouquets of flowers are ever exactly the same, a real floral display can never really be planned into the design and décor of the room. Until now. With longer lasting roses, you get a whole year of beauty with one bouquet, allowing you to plan much further in advance when it comes to real floral displays for the first time ever. Actually, Save Money If you or someone you love is known to always have a beautiful bouquet of roses or any other flowers in your home, you’ll know how expensive it can be. A medium bouquet of roses can cost anything from £30 to £100 depending on your specific choice and it will need replacing almost every week. When you actually think about the return on investment when it comes to longer lasting roses that last a whole year, it really is simple. Amongst so many more, we’ve looked at five reasons why we all need longer lasting roses in our lives. And wouldn’t you be slightly inclined to agree? If you do, keep an eye on our ever-evolving collection of eternal roses with options to suit every person’s style and all occasions.

What Are Infinity Roses?
What Are Infinity Roses?An introduction to the world’s most favourite new gift! Infinity roses have been booming as a gifting option worldwide! Adverts, shops and social media posts all seem to be raving about this new trend that is shifting how we gift roses. Don’t take our word for it, even celebrities and influencers are hopping onto the trend and are just loving it as a new gifting option. For us as a company, this is super exciting, we love that more and more people are falling in love with our roses! We suspect some of us may still have questions about infinity roses. The main one?What on earth ARE infinity roses?! Good question! Let’s clear it up for you. To put it simply, infinity roses are just roses. Yup, that’s it. Infinity roses are your everyday beautiful and all-natural roses that have just undergone a little treatment to keep them looking fabulous for that much longer. Similar to how some of us treat ourselves to a little Botox here and there to sort out some of those frown lines, infinity roses are treated with their own kind of Botox to help them with their aging. Is the process harmful or toxic? Not at all! Infinity roses are typically treated with an incredibly fine wax dust that is then soaked up into the petals. This wax dust process helps prevent the roses from aging quite as quickly as they usually would after being cut from their bush. The final result is a rose that looks identical to a rose growing straight from the bush or freshly bought from your local florist! What’s the difference? Unlike roses from your local florist, infinity roses are not going to wilt and die within days of purchase. Which means you can enjoy your infinity roses for significantly longer. How much longer? Up to a year and longer! This makes these roses ideal to keep in your own home, purchase for a special event or as a gift for that special someone in your life. Oh! We almost forgot, they’re also zero maintenance! There’s no need to water them, give them rose food or repot them after time. Without doing a single thing, you will have beautiful roses that are arranged in the highest quality boxes – and did we mention how amazing they smell? What’s not to love about roses that last years, zero-maintenance, non-toxic and are drop dead gorgeous? The trend is making waves in the world of gifting and we think it’s here to stay! If you’re interested in having a look at our arrangements, you can easily click the links below: SOLO – a single rose in premium quality acrylic boxes QUARTET – four roses in premium quality acrylic boxes ROUND BOX – 11 – 14 roses in round velvet boxes SQUARE BOX – 16 roses in premium quality and chic square hat box

5 Reasons Long-Lasting Roses Are Better
Why choose long-lasting roses over real ones? There’s nothing better than gifting stunning roses to a friend, loved one or yourself. But what could make beautiful real roses even better? How about if they lasted for a WHOLE year. We think long-lasting roses are better than regular roses for so many reasons. Here are just a few of them. They Last...Long Firstly, and most obviously, they last! Long-lasting roses or year-long roses have been treated while in perfect bloom. This treatment then keeps them at their most perfect state for a whole year. Roses from the local flower shop might look great in your favourite vase but within a week, they’ll start to dry, droop and wilt until they’re ready to go into the bin. Long-lasting roses remove this never-ending cycle. Buy roses now and months down the line, you’ll still be enjoying them. You Have Zero Maintenance Forget to add water to your vase? Or forget to add the flower food sachet that came with the standard roses you bought at the shop? They’ll start to wilt straight away. With long-lasting roses, this is not an issue. With zero maintenance from the minute you open your display box, our long-lasting roses stay in perfect bloom with no watering, no food and no adjustments necessary. The perfect gift for some who wants beautiful roses with zero hassle. You Don’t Have to Use a Vase When you bring a bouquet of flowers back from the shop – or receive them in a surprise delivery - the first thing you do is go on the hunt for a free vase. With long-lasting roses, the flowers have been selected by hand and added individually to our stunning Parisian-style suede display boxes. No matter your style of house, our display boxes are chic, elegant and effortlessly on-trend. Making them the perfect final touch for any home décor. You Have SO MUCH Colour Choice One of our favourite things about long-lasting roses? There truly is a colour for everyone. Love soft shades of pastel? Find them here. Prefer bold touches of royal blue, purple or bright green? You’re covered. Long-lasting roses come in a huge selection of colours, always in season and always available to buy in one place with Eternal Petals. Choose them to suit your house interior or select a colour that means something special to you. From romantic red to pure white and everything in between. They Look Amazing, Always Our roses are called long-lasting roses because they truly last. Exactly as they’re delivered to you. For a whole year, they don’t wilt or curl at the edges. They don’t lose their colour or drop petals. They look amazing, always. Shop long-lasting roses with Eternal Petalsand discover a brand-new way to gift and display stunning roses.
