Your Foam Roses Buying Checklist

Before you order, it helps to have answered four simple questions. Here is the checklist we would give a friend.

1. What Colour?

Match the colour to the occasion — red for romance, pink for showers and blush weddings, yellow for spring and everyday brightness, white for weddings and neutral decor. See our full colour guide for more detail.

2. Stemmed or Stemless?

If you are arranging in a vase, building a bouquet, or need height, choose stems. If you are gluing flat, scattering, or building into floral foam without needing height, stemless rose heads are usually more practical. Full breakdown in our stemmed vs stemless guide.

3. How Many Do You Need?

Roses are sold in packs of 25. A bouquet typically needs 15-25 stems, a centrepiece 10-15, and larger displays like arches considerably more. See our quantity guide before you check out, so you order enough in one batch.

4. Is It Genuine Real-Touch Foam?

Not all artificial flowers use the same material. Real-touch foam has a soft, flexible feel and natural colour variation that plain silk or plastic petals do not — it is worth knowing the difference before you buy. We cover this in Real-Touch Foam vs Silk Flowers.

Once you have answered those four questions, you will know exactly which product to order. Start with the Artificial Roses collection to browse by colour and style.
