1 million roses for wife on March 8

Russian press reported on March 7 that, inspired by a Soviet-era romantic song Million Roses, a Kazakh man ordered one million roses grown in the Netherlands to give to his wife on International Women's Day, March 8 this year.

The Express-K.kz website reported that the man had just had an argument with his wife and was trying to make up. It is not clear what the couple was arguing about, but it is known that, according to the husband’s order, a million red roses were to be delivered by an import company to his wife, who lives in the southern Kazakh city of Kyzylorda, on the morning of March 8.

The price of a red rose in Kyzylorda on March 7 ranged from $3 to $13. This means that the batch of roses the husband ordered was worth $3-13 million. According to Express-K.kz, the buyer received a huge discount from the seller.

Since 1982, the song Million Roses performed by Soviet singer Alla Pugacheva has entered the hearts of millions of listeners.

The song is about an artist who sells all his possessions to have enough money to buy a million roses for the girl he loves.
