Re: Fwd: The Romance of a Dozen Roses, the Gritty Reality of a Truckload


I went to the Los Angeles flower market twice. When in college, I worked at a retail nursery that had sublet space to a florist. He went every Thursday. I asked if I could go along--the market was fantastic. The worst part was getting up at 2 AM to go.

Interesting article. It's amazing how EVERYTHING becomes so commercialized. However, I confess I'd like to visit one of these flower markets. It looks like a flower lover's paradise.
