You can’t get away with skipping out on flowers for Valentine’s day. So don’t even try to talk yourself into believing the dinner reservation you managed to land at the fanciest restaurant in town is a good enough effort this year.

Sorry—it’s not. Show up to meet your date without flowers of some kind in hand, and you’re special someone will most likely feel a bit slighted.

Retailers are obviously in on the secret too, which is why a dozen roses can run somewhere close to $100 around Valentine’s Day. Fortunately, if you whip out the right kind of rewards credit card to make your last-minute flower purchase online, you can make sure your wallet feels a bit of Valentine’s Day love this year as well.

Here are the best Valentine’s Day credit card deals we could find for some last-minute flower shopping:

  • Discover: Get 20% cash back when you use Discover’s online shopping portal to buy flowers from FTD.com, 1800Flowers.com, 1800Baskets.com or ProFlowers.com.
  • American Express: Get 10 membership rewards points per dollar spent when you use Amex’s shopping mall to purchase flowers via 1800Flowers.com or ProFlowers.com.
  • Chase: Get 15 extra points per dollar spent at KaBloom or ProFlowers via Chase’s Ultimate Rewards Shopping Mall.
  • Citi: Get 10% cash back when shopping at ProFlowers.com,Teleflora.com, or FTD.com via the Citi Bonus Cash Center.
  • Capital One: Get 20 bonus miles on 1800Flowers.com purchases made via PerkCentral until 2/14.

If you’re just stumbling across this now, you’re officially “last minute”, so be sure to take advantage of these deals right away before they disappear until next year. Happy Valentine’s Day!
