1-800-Flowers
our beloved wire service, has been delivering edible fruit bouquet since some
time ago.
That is
a good alternative to real flowers, but it is against real brick and mortar
florist. Anyway, my aunt (real florist) was called from fruitbouquets.com
branch of 1-800-Flowers owner or Bloomnet, they told her about the great opportunity
to sell fruit bouquets yada, yada, yada; she answer them that this is not very compatible
due to the well known Ethylene
effect of the fruits over the fresh
flowers. Then, They replied telling her that this is not an issue; but ,if she cannot
do the fruit bouquets at least she should give them a referral of any person willing to do
that, does not matter whether or not the person is a florist.
Our
beloved 1-800-Flowers wire service again is competing in another front against florists.
I wonder
how many freelancer designers are doing fruits bouquets for fruitbouquets.com….
hummmm?
