A fantastic gift for the garden or home, our Personalised Valentine’s Crate comes ready planted with beautiful red roses.

This rustic pine-coloured wooden crate fits on most windowsills and is filled with red roses – but what’s more it can be personalised with any message, spelt out over two lines. The two red rose bushes will flower for 4-6 weeks and then can be planted outside and enjoyed for many years to come.

Say it with cake…
