What fun field trip! Thank you for bringing us along.

It was really cool to see flowers on this scale. It's such a different way of shopping and interacting with flowers than I'm used to. Thanks for watching!!

Amazing! A massive amount of flowers. I have to wonder how much of that is actually sold, and how much gets old and is trashed.

[@ellenfrostflowers]

I had the same thought!! There is so much product there! It also seems like a lot of it (most of it?) gets left on the floor over night which is why so much seems really open. Also... so much plastic sleeving!! It was a wild place!!

So cool to see so many flowers in one place. Also at the end when you show the arrangements - not my style! But I guess there’s something for everyone when it comes to flowers and design. I liked the one vase arrangement with the stems all at the top in oasis - just don’t want to use oasis.

[@ellenfrostflowers]

The thing that was so crazy about the oasis plate - was that the vase was full of water -as if they wanted the look of flowers in a vase but chose to plop the oasis on top. Oasis is never needed!!

I've watched a number of interviews with you, most recently the Flower Math series. I'm contemplating starting a flower business in San Diego. Do you think a small grower looking to sell to florists and event planners could compete with what you saw?
