Green by the Numbers: Organic flowers bloom into healthy bouquet

Did you know?

  • Seventy percent of all flowers sold in the US are grown in Colombia and Ecuador.
  • Typically, rose growers in Ecuador apply over a dozen poisons to control fungi and kill insects.
  • Pesticide and other toxic chemical use outside the US is not held to US safety regulations.

Organic bouquets are a green alternative. Pesticide and chemical free, organically grown flowers protect the health of loved ones and benefit the environment. Organic flower growers eliminate pesticide practices that can make workers ill, contaminate soil and groundwater, harm wildlife and drift into our homes and the atmosphere.

According to Organic Bouquet, organic flowers are more fragrant and last longer. On Valentine's Day, Mother's Day or Easter, say I love you and I care with organic flowers.
