Pandemic uproots Ecuador flower industry | Business - Jamaica Gleaner

Its flower sales are highly dependent on large-scale events like weddings and conventions that haven’t yet sprung back. In response, plantations in Ecuador are taking drastic measures. One large grower, Klaus Grestzer of Ecuagarden, estimates most businesses have thrown out over 50 per cent of their flowers since March. Overall, growing fields have been trimmed back about 17 per cent, according to Martinez. Some companies are trimming flowers to the root so that they don’t blossom for 18 months. “It seems we are going to get stuck at 70 per cent exportation to the 120 usual destinations,” he said. Colombia, by contrast, is back up to about 90 per cent of normal export levels, according to the Colombian Association of Flower Exporters. Like Ecuador, the nation saw a severe decline in March and April, months when growers were forced to destroy tons of flowers and turn them into compost. But around Mother’s Day, demand crawled back up and companies went back to work with new biosecurity protocols. Association President Augusto Solano said despite the hardship, the pandemic has, if anything, amplified appreciation of flowers. “In Colombia and throughout the world, people have begun valuing the benefits of flowers,” he said. “They give energy, tranquillity, and help reduce stress.” Nonetheless, small local vendors are still feeling the pain. Sonia Raga, 41, owns a flower shop in Bogota and says her sales are down 70 per cent. She hasn’t paid her rent in two months and had to let go three of her four employees. Though she’s now selling through online platforms, she said the city’s strict lockdown has decimated her business. The dire situation has forced her to contemplate selling flowers on the street like many of the informal vendors circulating the city. “I’ve been a flower professional my whole life,” she said. “I have no other economic activity.” Armando Morales, the owner of a small flower farm in northern Ecuador, is one of the nation’s few growers to see a boost in recent months. The roses he cultivates on his three hectares (7.4 acres) found an unexpected market in Russia. “Most farms closed or lowered their production,” he said. “But being a small farm, we did not reduce staff or sacrifice production, which allowed us to jump in and meet the unexpected demand.” AP ...

How Azaleas Became the Signature Flowers of the South - HowStuffWorks

China and Japan, and made their way to the U.S. via England, France and Germany around the 1830s. The first American azaleas were planted on a plantation near Charleston, South Carolina, called Middleton Place Gardens, and have been associated with Southern gardens ever since. The oldest landscaped garden in the U.S., Middleton Place was created in 1741 by Henry Middleton using the design principles of Andre' Le Notre, who crafted the gardens at the Château de Vaux le Vicomte and Palace of Versailles in France. Among its highlights: a stunning view of blooming azalea gardens covering the hillside beneath the trees that is said to take your breath away. Some other Southern spots to view these fabulous flowers: The gardens at Tryon Palace in New Bern, North Carolina, where azalea gardens can be found blooming in naturalized beds during the spring, along with thousands of tulip bulbs; Airlie Gardens in Wilmington, North Carolina, complete with 67 acres (27 hectares) boasting more than 100,000 azaleas; and Brookgreen Gardens, between Myrtle Beach and Pawleys Island in Murrells Inlet, South Carolina, where you'll find a former rice plantation sporting one of the largest collections of outdoor sculptures in the U.S. on 551 acres (223 hectares) surrounded by azaleas, camellias and live oaks. So, why have azaleas become the signature flowers of the South? While these plants can be grown in many areas across the U.S., they prefer the moist, well-drained acidic soil and partial shade of the Southeastern U.S. "Due to their showiness and their adaptability to the climate — making them pretty easy to grow — they are popular in the region," explains Patricia Collins, who is now retired after serving 52 years as director...
