Contrary to popular thinking, it is possible to give a sexy gift without breaking the bank.

And let’s be honest, roses are anything but cheap, and have kind of been overdone over the years! So save yourself some money this year and give a different gift.

Here are a few tips on a trendy, sexy and different Valentine’s gift:

• Stock up on Burgandy icebergs instead of cut red roses
• Plant a tree for eternity - Daiscotinifolia sp. is an indigenous beauty with soft pink flowers, flowering in summer
• Buy your Valentine a punnet of strawberries – this time of year they are at their peak and ready for rounded lips

Above all, the most important part of Valentine’s Day is the thought, love and care that goes into the gift – the gift is secondary.
