Low Rose Centerpiece - How Many Roses?

Low Rose Centerpiece Question:

How many roses are needed for it to look full (without a lot of filler)? Is 12 enough, or am I better off with 2 dozen or more?

Thanks!

(If anyone has pics, and/or prices, that would be Terrific!!)

maybe these will help. I would think you'd need at least 2 dozen

Thank you so much Donna! That top picture is just the look I'm going for! I had a feeling that 12 would be too few.

Would you (or anyone else), by any chance know how much something like that would go for?

Thanks again!

I'm sorry I have no idea about prices for roses, I'm using tulips

I had 3 dozen with no filler flowers in a 8' fishbowl . I originally ahd 2 dozen , but it looked small.

If you get filler flowers, it will be less expensive and you do not have to get as many roses.

I had low rose centerpieces but honestly, i have no idea how many where in there. I do know they were full and gorgeous! I also had 2 pillar candles on either end and rose petals on the tables. Maybe this can give you some ideas.

12 is ok if they are big full blooming roses. For smaller blooms try for a compromise- get 18. Not as $$ as 24, but fuller than 12. I think that's what I am doing. It's been so long since we booked the florist I forgot already! (This is all with filler flowers and greens and stuff.)
