If you’re after something more fancy, bouquets start from around £25 with delivery - and some include chocolates and cards in that price.
The supermarkets are the cheapest place to go if you’re looking to save some cash, but that doesn’t necessarily mean they’ll last the longest.
The majority of high street retailers sell short-stemmed “sweetheart” roses for valentines day, while florists tend to sell ones with long stems and bigger heads.
Surprisingly, prices actually drop on Valentine's Day gifts online  itself as supermarket try to shift surplus stocks.
But if you don’t want to leave it until the big day, then these are your best options based on what's available today.
Do note that more supermarkets will unveil their online Valentine’s Day flowers much nearer to February 14.
We also expect prices to fluctuate so make sure you compare deals to get the best value for money.
Tesco, Asda and Lidl don’t have any roses listed on their websites yet.

Where can I get the cheapest bunches of roses?

  • Aldi is selling 10 roses for £1.99 - the cheapest we've found so far. They're available in a variety of colours including red, orange, yellow, cream and pink. Sadly, you can't order them online so you'll need to visit your nearest Aldi to pick up a bunch.

  • The next best price we found comes from Sainsbury's, where you can buy 10 roses for £2.50. They also come in different colours, including red, yellow, orange, white, cerise or pink. You can order these roses now on the Sainsbury's website although there is a delivery charge of £1 to £7 and you need to spend at least £25.
  • Morrisons is selling red roses for valentines day for £6. While it doesn't specifically say on the website how many you get in a bunch, the picture on the product page shows 13 roses which only come in pink and red. This bunch can be ordered on the Morrisons website - but there's a minimum spend of £40 and a delivery charge of between £1.50 and £5.
