Valentine Gift Idea #4: Send Virtual Roses or Flowers

Virtual flowers last forever, can be sent instantly and are free. Just make sure you attach a really nice message, so the true sentiment is felt. Of course, if your Valentine loves fresh flowers, you might want to follow up with the real thing the next time you see her.

Many online flower retailers offer a virtual roses or flowers service. They do this because they hope that you’ll buy some flowers and their company information is displayed when the recipient views their flowers.

Here’s an example of arrangements you can send from FlowerShopNetwork.com:

Just click “Email Picture”, add your message and it will be emailed to your sweetie.

Or if you’d like something a little less commercial, go a botanical garden (or yours, if you have fllowers) and take some photos of beautiful flowers. Send a flower a day with a special message leading up to Valentine’s Day.
