Opinion: The Floral Industry During COVID-19

During this unprecedented time of stay at home orders the Association of Floral Importers of Florida (AFIF) is hoping that people can understand the health benefits of flowers.  Research shows that flowers can relieve stress, can make people feel better and can give one a better outlook on life if flowers are in their homes or workplace. 

Flowers are available, they are in most of the stores that are open and consumers can brighten someone’s day by having flowers delivered to whomever they are thinking of, can bring some flowers home to enhance their homes and or can leave flowers on someone’s doorstep to say “thank you” or “thinking of you” in this time of social distancing.
