Roses are red — and ready
With Valentine’s Day coming on a Sunday this year, you might want to plan ahead to get flowers for that special sweetie, otherwise you might have to rely on grocery store floral departments.
MU’s Horticulture Club wants to make that romantic purchase even easier for you. Club members will hold their annual rose sale throughout the day Friday, Feb. 12, in the lobby of Natural Resources Building. Single roses, bouquets and arrangements will be available, and proceeds will help fund club activities.
