Git Yer Flowerz ‘Ere Darlin’

Love in a cold climate

Continuing on our Valentines Day theme today, did you know that us…

”…British romantics will spend 22m ($31.5m) on flowers on Valentine’s Day. To satisfy our desire to shower each other with blooms at the end of winter, cut flowers are flown in from growers in Kenya, Israel, Ecuador, Colombia and India. And most pass through giant auction halls in the Netherlands before being re-exported.”

I always used to just pinch them from my mums back garden – much simpler. And talking of mothers, apparently men spend four times more on their mothers on Mothers Day than on their partners on Valentines Day, so there you are, there’s a facinating fact. Sort of.
