Sant Jordi roses: preparations and how to keep them fresh
Daisies, Gardenias, Orchids, Tulips… There are many flowers to choose from, but on Sant Jordi, there is only one you should go for, the rose. Catalonia's day of love, April 23rd, sees millions of roses on the streets. Flower shops expect to sell around six million roses this year, with the vast majority coming from overseas, although some have been grown locally. / Gerard Escaich Folch
