"I'd rather have roses on my table, than
diamonds on my neck."
- Emma Goldman, 1869 - 1940
Eco-friendly flower shops and florists recognize the market demand
for organic flowers and produces flowers of all kinds which have been
grown safely and gently using eco-certified methods.
It's becoming traditional to return to organic-rose-gardening methods
which means no exposure to harmful chemicals.
Afterall, how did rose gardens grow and thrive before pesticides and
herbicides that are man-made came along?
It's easier and cheaper to grow organic roses by using natural pest
control and fertilizers to provide what roses need for growth.
Compost or biodegradable organic waste products provide the best
nutrients for roses and all plants. Insects and predators help keep
the real pesky insects from damaging plants, and non-toxic pesticides
take good care of the rest if needed. So does companion planting
to attract the beneficial insects to a garden.
Organic-rose-gardening produces fantastic results, and on the larger
commercial scale, this means no contamination dangers to farmers,
farm employees, animals, greenhouses or to the earth itself.
This produces socially and environmentally responsible fair trade
products for consumers, and enables those consumers to purchase
responsibly too and feel good about what they are spending on.
Valentine-day-roses are such a huge part of valentines day traditions,
and yet even tulips are finding their way in as a popular purchase
at this time as well.
Roses are not a cheap valentine flower, that's true. But prices are
comparable, and to many people, roses will always be the one flower
that says it all, and expresses love from the heart the best way possible.
Ask your local florist about eco-friendly flowers or specifically, roses
to choose from or go to any eco-friendly flower section online when considering
shopping for roses on valentines day.
Don't forget to inquire about eco-friendly vases made from recycled
materials too when you are there to put your roses in.
Regardless of what type eco-friendly flowers you purchase, they are certain to please.
Valentine-day-roses grown organically are sure to be much healthier, and the
blooms promise to be spectacular as well.
