dozen roses
Valentine's Day standard
A dozen roses is a bouquet of twelve roses, traditionally red, given as a romantic gesture.
The quantity carries symbolic weight—twelve suggesting completeness or devotion.
Florists sell them as a standard unit: He sent her a dozen roses for Valentine's Day.
The phrase often implies romantic love even without specifying color.
