In the tale of Beauty and the Beast the cursed prince must find his true love before the last petal of The Enchanted Rose falls or he'll be stuck in beast mode forever.
Anyone who has brought home a beautiful bouquet and watched it wither can relate to this symbolism, and as much as we'd like those roses to live forever they don't last long.
That is, unless they're the gorgeous blooms being produced by Forever Roses, a luxury flower company selling roses they claim will last for three years without sunlight or water- or "forever" (20+ years) when kept under a glass dome.
