Garden Variety

As you prepare to wow your sweetheart on Valentine’s Day, you may think there’s no need to tinker with your traditional presentation of a dozen roses and a box of chocolates. But think again. More specifically, think outside the box. You’re smart to pile on the chocolate, but please be creative with your bouquet. If you look beyond the rose, you’ll see these glistening FoFlowers from Umbra. Purchase one immediately. Fill the five receptive metallic paper frames with meaningful photos of you, her, past, present or even future events. You’ll melt her heart, they’ll last forever, and your romantic quotient will rise about a thousand percent. Die-hard traditionalists, by all means, mix a few red roses among your loving sentiments and let the romance begin.
