Why an odd number of roses is given<\/h2>\n

In Lithuania, as in many neighbouring countries, an odd<\/strong> number of flowers is given for celebrations \u2013 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 and so on. An even number is traditionally reserved for funerals, so it is avoided for birthdays or Valentine\u2019s Day. The rule usually applies up to about twenty stems \u2013 in large bouquets nobody counts, but many people still choose an odd number.<\/p>\n
