Rose Born Free® Conveys a Message
The newest of the red successes is Rose Born Free®. The presentation of the image of Banksy here below is foremost aimed at the promotion of the variety Born Free®. A rose is an emotional product and its commercial name and trademark convey a message, with an appearance in the mind of the user.
Banksy is a graffiti street artist who made the mural of a masked man throwing a bunch of flowers, inspired by images of 1960s protests in France. It portrays peace and hope. In these times of worldwide military conflicts, a clear message. And Born Free is a nod to the incredible story of Joy and George Adamson, two known wildlife conservationists who lived and worked for decades in Kenya, associated with Elsa the Lioness, Joy wrote Born Free to tell the lion's tale, which was later made into an Academy Award-winning movie.
"LOVE IS IN THE AIR" is the perfect message for Valentine's Day.

Rose Ever Red
Most florists are familiar with the Ever Red®, a pure and truly deep red rose. Ever Red roses are the epitome of what a true red rose should look like. Pure beauty in a truly deep red shade. But besides those eye-pleasing characteristics, they have the added benefit of being globally available, coming in lengths between 60cm and 90cm, and have a very good vase life of 10 to 14 days.
Ever Red roses are grown at many different farms. The beautiful blossoms of the Ever Red rose are largely available for floral designers at local wholesalers and for the general public at almost all flower shops in the world, making it one of those staple roses that everyone should have had in their hands at least once.
Rose Flanna
Flanna is a straight-up velvety dark red African rose. Closed it has this mystique black shadow on it, but on opening this rose starts to glow its beautiful red colors.
Rose Rhodos
The Rose Rhodos®, a sizzling red and world-famous variety, known for its large flower head and thornless stem, is grown in Kenya in greenhouses at 1,600 meters altitude. Here, it receives lots of natural sunlight which makes it grow to an impressive length of 60 to 90 cm. The large-headed rose has a head size of 5,5 cm and is characterized by its high petal count, which is spotted best in full bloom.
The powerful red of Rose Rhodos is slightly brighter than most other red roses. The stems of Rhodos are thornless and this rose is generally seen as one of the longest-lasting red roses available. This makes it one of the most popular red roses for Valentine's!
Rose Red Calypso
Rose Red Calypso® is still a widely demanded rose. It has become one of those mainstay red roses and for good reason. With its slightly smaller head than most standard roses, it has a delicate look. Plus, that deep red hue adds a touch of passion to your designs. Red Calypso opens its petals gradually and has virtually no black discoloration.
If you want to add a sensual pop of color to classic arrangements, the Rose Red Calypso® is your best pick. With its vibrant red color and really good vase life, this variety has a lot of commercial value for florists and retailers. Red Calypso roses bloom into beautiful, classic rose shapes that work well in bridal bouquets, and centerpieces, and are a favorite for Valentine's arrangements. With a great vase life, classic blooms, and a passionate and romantic color palette, there is very little to love about this variety.
Rose Born Free
Rose Born Free® is one of De Ruiter’s latest winners within reds from South America. With a bud size of +5 cm and a bright red color, Born Free is a promising variety. Rose Born Free is also always opening, even after a long journey. Sea freight is not a problem at all! This opens opportunities for more sustainable transportation means. Resistant to botrytis and the perfect size for each segment. A full-blooded red and beautiful variety.
Rose Furiosa
This African-grown lady Rose Furiosa® in ruby red is a rose for whom aesthetic seduction is a given. The wine-colored petals offer the same allure of soft scarves drenched in the most sensual perfume. The pretty red blooms unfurl slowly into a classic rose and it has a very good vase life for lasting joy. A popular variety among florists, but also for supermarkets, weddings, and events.
Rose Cupido
When it comes to only the perfect named rose for Valentine's Day, this Rose Cupido® wins gloriously. De Ruiter speaks of ‘vitamins for love and heart’. Cupido is a high-quality variety with a more than 6 cm bud size, a unique color, and a long vase life. Straight and long stems without thorns.
