Valentine's Day stories & anecdotes
While customers look forward to giving their loved ones a flowery surprise on Valentine's Day, Fleurop florists are working for you all over Germany - sometimes day and night. The "Day of Love" is one of the busiest events of the year for florists and requires good preparation in order to be able to deliver all the bouquets on time. Nevertheless, many florists are eagerly awaiting the big day - because on Valentine's Day they often become part of the most beautiful stories that love writes. Find out how our florists experience the day and what anecdotes they have to tell ...
"May our love last until the last rose has faded."
A dear customer of ours wanted to give his wife a very special bouquet of flowers for Valentine's Day. He chose lots of classic red roses as a symbol of love. He also opted for a silk flower, also a red rose. He happily tells us that he will hand over the bouquet with the words: "May our love last until the last rose has faded."
Of course, we were all very touched and think back fondly on this loving gesture.
One more rose every year.
The white rose symbolises innocence and eternal fidelity, the red rose stands for passionate love - and every year there is one more rose. For example, one of our customers regularly makes his sweetheart happy on Valentine's Day. The number of roses increases with each year of love. This also gave rise to the question of the right vase. "This is a recurring problem," says the customer with a smile. As a professional Fleurop partner, we naturally always have the right vase on offer - and look forward to every happy year with him.
"You are the love of my life"
The funniest story we've had on a Valentine's Day is when we sold a young man three bouquets of red roses - so far quite unspectacular. Afterwards, however, the customer took three greeting cards with the words "You are the love of my life" printed on them. This caused a secret smile and a few laughs afterwards.
Past times
In 1975, we drew attention to Valentine's Day for the first time. We hired a horse-drawn carriage, decorated children's bicycles and rode together through the streets of the neighbourhood. We gave flowers to people walking and cycling on the streets, and there were also balloons. We used a bell to draw attention to ourselves. It was a great event and the children in particular had a lot of fun!

"I'm not going along with this crap."
Evil tongues claim every year: "Valentine's Day is an invention of the florists". On 14 February, friends were talking about the occasion and quickly agreed: "I'm not going along with this crap." Just in time for the end of the working day, three of them were standing in our flower shop - and looked at each other with wide eyes: "What, you here? You didn't want to ...?"
With this in mind: the magic of flowers is magical! We are already looking forward to Valentine's Day again.
Since the "sandbox"
We once had a huge bouquet of red roses for Valentine's Day. The customer was a former classmate who had married a classmate. The couple have been together since the "sandbox". A few weeks later, I bumped into the client and his wife while out shopping. I then wanted to know from his wife how the bouquet had arrived and whether it had lasted long. They both stared at me with huge eyes - one with horror, the other with astonishment. I quickly left ...
