isn't it so crazy that you can never trust anyone who tells you they're the only one you can trust

for valentine's day I am going to tell everyone on the internet that I think bouquets of just roses are dumb.

why? because really, the only reason you would want a bouquet of only roses is to show off how much money you have. roses are expensive. one standard rose at market price is usually about $20 (USD), like if you get it from a wholesaler or something. floral shops usually upcharge for arrangement and also so they can have a profit.

now, you may think about your local grocery store and their bouquets and go "uh I'm pretty sure they do not charge like $100 for their bouquets." this is because they are also probably NOT MAKING BOUQUETS OF ONLY ROSES. also, grocery stores aren't necessarily exactly the most prime location to find super high quality flowers, perhaps. it's a grocery store, my dude.

also, a bunch of roses doesn't look that good. like, dang, at least throw in some foliage or something. that's Boring. and also lazy. what, you couldn't afford to get an actual arrangement because you spend all your money on like a dozen roses? that's like $240 at market price btw

long story short, a bouquet of literally just roses is, in my opinion, in bad taste because the lack of other materials is lazy and frankly unattractive, and therefore the only purpose of doing this is to show off your wealth.

once upon a time I watched a few episodes of 90-day fiance. in the show, there were these two separate guys who both went to the airport with a bouquet. one was with roses, tulips, foliage, and I think some baby's breath. the other was pretty much the same in terms of size and composition, except replace all the tulips with roses.

if they hadn't already told you who was more rich (they had. they made a big point of telling you how rich that one guy was. it was important), you could have told just from the bouquets. standard tulips, at market price, are approximately $2.50 per stem.

think about the price of roses ($20).

now think about the price of tulips ($2.50) again.

now, both of these bouquets were actually objectively alright, in my opinion. I mean, I didn't really like either that much (my preference is 3 roses per arrangement max. I like a variety of flowers.) but the baby's breath was a tremendous help to the rich guy's arrangement, for one thing, and I'm always a fan of foliage (foliage my beloved). I don't really like cut tulips that much (they're just so squishy), but I did really appreciate the variety, so that was also a huge plus.

um. anyways. don't be lazy and get an affordable and attractive arrangement of not just roses.

(me clearing my queue before I start playing my music over the speakers at work) just because I want to listen to tokugawa cupnoodle prohibition ten times in a row doesn't mean all of you have to do it too

have been thinking SO hard about (french accent) "honhonhon hee I'll go under the sea"

what are your favorite plants

oooo... this is a hard question because plants are very cool.

my favorite houseplant, I think, is an asparagus fern. no particular reason except that I had one when I was little and then I wanted one for years after. they're kind of soft, not hard to care for, and they grow pretty quickly, which are pluses. also they're not ferns that look like asparagus but rather asparagus that is perpetually fern-like, so that's kind of cool. don't eat them tho.

this is my asparagus fern, May!

for plants I can eat, I really like fruits and vegetables, so that's a hard one, but I like peas a lot. and broccoli, and zucchini, and green beans, and oranges, and apricots, and-

also, like, black pepper, at the very least.

I think my favorite tree has got to be either a curly willow or a ginkgo. probably. trees are super cool too. I do have a juniper bonsai.

and, um, favorite flower, I guess? idk but I think it's cool how there are so many kinds of mums. carnations are fun? I like those for arrangements. I'm doing a project on peonies rn so I guess they're cool too.
