Red roses! Five dozens. Why not? Ain’t it impressively beautiful. Happy Valentine’s Week.

Hope you have enjoyed your Valentine arrangement.  Remember, the arrangement can be placed in the green bin for green waste collection.  The glass container can be reused a few more times before placing into the blue bin for glass container collection.

The Andean Trade Promotion and Drug Eradication Act has expired as of February 12, 2011. The Act was to engage economic development in the Andean countries (Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru) and provide them incentive to grow alternative crop as oppose to drug (mainly cocaine) production. What does that have to do with flowers? Those roses you bought for your sweetheart this past Valentine’s day are more than likely from Ecuador. Let’s hope the renewal or extension is happening soon so we won’t see any price spike on your next roses purchase.
