Australia's Most Romantic Suburbs

Valentine’s Day tends to bring out the gooey romantic in many of us – even the most jaded cynic isn’t immune!  So, it’s no surprise that this special day is one of the busiest in the Roses Only calendar. In fact, our long-stemmed red roses – a timeless statement of love practically fly off the shelves in the dizzying days leading up to February 14th! 

With so many rose orders, our team were curious to uncover which suburbs are the most hopelessly romantic when it comes to Valentine’s Day gifting. Subsequently, we got together and have compiled our V Day sales data from the past two years to unveil Australia’s most romantic postcodes – and the results might surprise you…

Valentine’s Day gifting trends

Our top-ten results are based purely on sales of our ever-popular long-stemmed red roses. But, interestingly, in the past few years we’ve noticed the emergence of some less traditional flower varieties, such as pink and white coloured roses, as well as sunflowers, oriental lilies and Australian natives.

What’s in a colour?

Without even realising it, the flower colour you choose can say a lot. While red roses are well known for denoting romance, yellow roses are ideal if you simply want to brighten up the day for someone special in your life. Additionally, pink roses are perfect if you’d like to send a colour that’s more modern, yet still the traditional rose as a symbol of love.

Variety is the spice of life

If you’re looking for something other than flowers to gift this Valentine’s Day, why not try one of our gourmet hampers from Hampers Only? They are a great way of delivering fresh, seasonal fruit, chocolates or a fine bottle of wine, and are a perfect accompaniment to a romantic picnic with your special someone.
