7 roses in Buenos Aires: an odd number and how to choose the seven
7 roses in Buenos Aires are an odd count: in Russia, Ukraine, Belarus and most of the former USSR, odd numbers go to the living, even ones to the memory of the dead. Elsewhere a dozen is the usual gift, so seven stems suit either reader, and the choice comes down to colour and finish.
Which seven: colour, variety and a sprig of eucalyptus
Red reads as passionate love in Victorian flower dictionaries, pink as a softer feeling and white as purity, though the lists disagree, so treat colour as a hint rather than a rule.
French roses aren't a variety: a florist reflexes the outer petals by hand for a fuller bloom. Jumilia's bud reaches up to seven centimetres, white at the base and pink at the edge, and with good care it lasts up to two weeks in a vase, against about a week for an ordinary rose. Peony roses are usually English varieties bred by David Austin, or similar.
Eucalyptus works here as filler between the rose heads. Seven French roses in a box needs no more than its name.
