Roses’ big day

RED ROSES have come to symbolize love and romance. And this is at its peak on Valentine’s Day.
In Bridgetown and Speightstown yesterday, there were regal roses galore – both fresh and artificial – for people who wanted them to help declare their love to significant others.
Bountiful Bargain Centre in Church Street, Speightstown, St Peter, offered a wide variety of this love symbol for their customers to choose from.
