International Flower Shows
Add Dimension to Your Holidays
Flower shows were in my peripheral vision when the flower business first crossed my path in 1991.I enrolled in local floral associations and the orchid society and travelled to Hawaii to check out the orchid import process--and to pick as many florists' brains as I could. Information comes easier to a stranger than on home-turf I found. And since then, whether it was in the Barbadoes, Thailand, Mexico,Japan, one of the priorities on the travel-agenda was to check out the local floral scene.
As you're here, you're an enthusiast,also. So cross-reference those travel plans to include the world's greatest flower shows.
