Florist remains open to serve funeral needs - Troy Daily News

Troy’s Trojan Florist will remain open, with slightly altered operations. The business qualifies as “critical” in relation to its service to funerals.According to owner and manager Jules Conner, Baird Funeral Home is the primary funeral home served by Trojan Florist, with Fisher-Cheney Funeral Home being the second. The shop also works less exclusively with funeral homes in St. Paris and Fletcher.Though the way funerals and associated services are held has temporarily changed — with more video options and smaller gatherings — flowers remain a staple in how people can express sympathy, even during a pandemic.“Some funerals have been postponed, so if someone calls and wants to send something to that family who is now not having a service, then I will deliver to an extended area,” Conner said.Aside from this, Conner said she is aiming to keep deliveries in the local area only, and at a reduced capacity.“Right now, I’m only doing local Troy deliveries, as far as just regular flowers, because I don’t want to abuse this,” she said. “I’m graciously able to be open because of funeral work.”Conner added that she has recently delivered flowers for reasons associated to the pandemic, as well.“I have an arrangement going to Upper Valley that someone is sending to nurses to say thank you, and I have one going today to the health department with the same message,” she said. “I had a family call and it was their grandmother’s 80th birthday, but she’s hom... https://www.tdn-net.com/news/81912/florist-remains-open-to-serve-funeral-needs

Hurricane Irma leads to historic flower shortage for local florists - Kokomo Tribune

Miami. Even if they could, trucking routes out of the state have been cut off because of storm damage.That’s all lead to an historic flower shortage for U.S. floral shops.Dave Baird, co-owner of Webster Florist in Peru, said he’s worked in the industry for 57 years, and he’s never seen such a massive disruption to the U.S. flower supply.“This hurricane probably has had the most effect on the quality, quantity and types of flowers we can get that I’ve ever seen,” he said Friday. “It’s been very limited on colors and the amounts. I know some wholesalers just got some stuff in today, but it’s an extremely limited supply.”Lagzdins agreed. She said in her more than 20 years at Banner Flower, she’s dealt with small disruptions in the flower supply, but nothing on this scale.“Most other disruptions you can cope with,” she said. “You can change your shipper, but this was so massive. I guess you just have to go with flow.”And so do their clients. Lagzdins said her shop is providing floral arrangements for two large weddings this weekend. The flowers were ordered and had already arrived in Florida. But the shipment never arrived because the trucks couldn’t get out of the state.“These were all ordered for the wedding and they were shipped for the wedding, but those shipments are stuck in Miami,” she said. “The brides we are working with have been exceedingly understanding. Everyone is bending over backwards to make everything happen on schedule.”For Banner Flower, that means working with four distributors who are trying to scrounge up the requested flowers from other locations from around the U.S. and all over the world. But it’s slim picking, Lagzdins said.And all the effort trying to track down flowers has doubled her workload.“You’re on the horn all the time trying to track down your stuff,” Lagzdi... http://www.kokomotribune.com/news/hurricane-irma-leads-to-historic-flower-shortage-for-local-florists/article_ea9f4f4a-9a4e-11e7-9ab0-77d1b200705a.html

Some points about poinsettias - Abilene Reporter-News

As of several years ago, sales topped $60 million in the United States.The third-highest producer of this holiday favorite is Texas.Your purchases don’t just beautify your home but help support your state. I plan to tell my husband I am doing my patriotic duty when I bring mine home. I will let you know what happens.The poinsettia is native to southern Mexico. It was discovered by Dr. Joel Roberts Poinsett, an amateur botanist and the first United States ambassador to Mexico. Near the town of Taxco, Mexico, in December 1828, he was enchanted by shrubs with brilliantly colored red leaves growing by the side of the road. The cuttings he sent home became the first poinsettias introduced in the United States.The poinsettias we buy now are grown and shaped for seasonal household use, but in their native land or other tropical locations, they are small trees. They can reach heights around 12  feet and have leaves measuring 6 to 8 inches across. You might be interested in doing an internet search for pictures of these.They are extraordinarily lovely.I was surprised to find that Texas has a native poinsettia, Poinsettia cyathophora.

The flower business is in my family," she said. "Each work we do here is to help our customers express something with flowers."Photoby Junius Stone / Texarkana Gazette.TEXARKANA, Texas — Flowers are a family tradition for Elizabeth Marcelle Yates, owner of PG Florist.

We are welcoming our new customers who have discovered us here and want to ensure those who have been with us all this time we are not out of business. We've just changed location."Things are really busy at PG Florist right now as Marcelle (she goes by her middle name) and her staff settle into the new location and continue their work.
