When a customer sticks their nose into a bouquet of organic flowers and breathes deeply they get a snoot full of western flower thrips. Or worse yet they get them home, place them on the dinner table and little black beetles crawl out. Its a challenge to grow a quality cut flower without some pesticide. Its even a greater challenge to grow them organically especially in our humid east coast environment. I find it offensive when prople say we "dump" pesticides on everything... Bob.
What is the first thing people do when presented with a flower? They stick
their nose right in it and breathe in deeply. Any pesticides or other
chemical residues come right into your lungs.
