Yes it is true. Many of the flowers sold in floral shops in the United States are imported! This may be one of the more difficult products to bust when it comes to finding out where they originate.
NOW TAKE HEART IN THE GREAT STATE OF HAWAII where orchids, bird of paradise, and other more tropical flowers are grown and are flown into the mainland United States...
SO WHAT CAN YOU DO? ASK YOUR FLOREST where the flowers and other items they use such as baskets and vases originate. GO TO THE LOCAL NURSERY where the tags may let you know where the plants have been grown... and buy live plants rather than cut flowers.
Even though their answer may not please you, JUST ASKING LETS THEM KNOW YOU CARE!
