FiftyFlowers Announces New Wedding Collection Product Launch - Press Release - Digital Journal
Tuesday, May 21, 2019Boise, Idaho, and Quito, Ecuador. The name “FiftyFlowers” comes from the traditional wholesale rose order. Roses are packaged in bundles of 25 stems, but if a florist puts 25 stems in a box, they end up with an uneven, lopsided box, so the standard rose shipment has always been 50 flowers. Flower shipping has progressed a lot since then and we do offer smaller boxes with as few as 25 stems today, and we definitely offer more than 50 flowers. In fact, we have one of the most extensive selections of wholesale flowers available anywhere, which is supplied by a global network of more than 200 flower farms.For more information, please contact Gabriel Poe at gabriel@raycepr.com.Related LinksWedding CollectionsRelated Images Press Release Service by Newswire.com Original Source: FiftyFlowers Announces New Wedding Collection Product Launch ... http://www.digitaljournal.com/pr/4298235

Capital - Why are flowers so expensive? - BBC News
Tuesday, May 21, 2019There are several reasons: flowers are delicate, high maintenance, perishable, difficult to grow, often imported and can cross continents as they make their way from field to florist.So as 12 May approaches – Mother’s Day in nearly 100 countries – you may find yourself grumbling about how much a bouquet costs. But that price tag has to account for the house-of-cards nature of the product: the time and money farmers spend to hit holiday deadlines and the pressure for florists to match supply to demand, or lose out. High-risk peaksPerfect blooms are extremely fragile – both physically and from a business perspective.And when it comes to flowers grown to hit holiday peaks, both farmers and florists face higher labour costs and financial risks. A big driver behind this is the fact that so many countries import their flowers.According to research from Comtrade, the United Nations’ international trade database, global exports of cut flowers were worth $8.48bn in 2017, a 46% increase from 1995. (“Cut flowers” refers to flowers presented in bouquets, like roses, lilies, tulips and pansies.) The Netherlands was the top exporter, followed by developing countries like Colombia, Ecuador, Kenya and Ethiopia. Ecuador a... http://www.bbc.com/capital/story/20190507-why-are-flowers-so-expensive

Angee's Flowers opened its doors to customers at the beginning of May, though she said she had customers knocking on the back door for arrangements ahead of the official opening. Since then, the business has built its customer base through word of mouth and social media. More: Take on DIY gardening in small spaces And on one of the busiest days for florists — Mother's Day— Lamberth said, customers who work with their florists to produce an arrangement walk away the happiest. "Don't pick a picture on the internet, or bring it to me for inspiration," Lamberth said. "You as a customer can spend an hour picking up the perfect arrangement and you may come to the shop and I may not have that flower in stock, so you've wasted all of that time." Lamberth said the personal touch is part of the service she provides the community. "Everything I do will be a custom order," she said. ... https://www.currentargus.com/story/money/business/2019/05/11/mothers-day-gifts-angees-flowers-carlsbad-nm/1167371001/
