I am looking into price costs and how to transport cut flowers. I was
looking at $1.75 per stem for quality color or scent wholesale.

We have grocery stores here sell one stems for $2.25 or better for

I am hoping for $3.00 for fragrant types.
I am looking into having a Nursery license for the sell of cut flowers.
I applied for the license and I am waiting to be inspected. Waiting for
a govt. agency to do something is difficult for me to accept.
