Rob,
We used roses IIRC, and I think they were cheaper. Two dollars a
stem sounds rather expensive to me, especially if we're buying in
bulk. But we went to the SF Flower Mart, which is kind of a wholesale
place, not just a local flower shop. Here is a list of their
vendors: http://www.sfflmart.com/vendors_frameset.html .
Love & Liberty,
