Thrifty Florist Early Ordering this Valentine’s Day

New challenges have been presented due to the current supply chain problem. As a result, this has also affected the Flower industry like most industries. Thrifty Florist offers excellent service and beautiful products to customers. Our team is focused on staying ahead of supply issues. Subsequently, Thrifty Florist makes Early Ordering this Valentine’s Day very convenient and easy. As we are getting closer to Valentine’s Day, please place orders well in advance.

Early Valentine’s Flower Ordering

For instance, due to the pandemic, there were fewer than normal plantings at flower farms. Subsequently, the need to quarantine made some farm owners shut down. In some cases, they had to shut down their farms completely. An estimated 247,717 floral worker jobs were lost between 2019 and 2020.
South America is one of the top countries for flower production. The growing conditions have historically been very good on that continent. However, recent weather pattern changes have caused colder nights and more rain than is required. Therefore, the health of flower plants has been negatively affected. Similarly, U.S. Flower Farms have suffered as well. For example, California is a top flower producer. Drought, wildfire and the unpredicted flooding has caused much damage to flower crops.
Interestingly, Weddings are going through a boom period. According to reports there were 1.3 million weddings in 2020. Then in 2021 that grew to 1.93 million. It is predicted that there could be 2.47 million in 2022. Of course, this will most likely normalize once the back log of delayed weddings is addressed. For this reason, it is easy to see what a strain this has placed on flower shops.

Adjustments to Flower Shortage

Above all, Thrifty Florist has a strong desire to satisfy customers with caring service and beautiful flowers. Thus, we have made adjustments to our practices and communications to our customers. Below are some areas we have focused on to make this supply chain issue as easy to embrace as we can.

For example, in our communications to customers, we have told them about the current flower shortage we are dealing with. As a result, there are some cases where clients need to be more flexible in their flower arrangement selection.
Importantly, earlier ordering is key to help us have the best chance of meeting our customer’s specific product needs.
Thrifty Florist has extremely talented floral designers. Therefore, we are using those talents to create wonderful arrangements. Above all, our mission is to create the most elegant and beautiful bouquets and arrangements working with what we have. For instance, some people do not know that talented designers can make a Rose look like a Peony or a Tulip to look like a Gardenia.
