"Ornamental and Floral" is the general term for any farmer who is growing flowers or other ornamental plants as a crop. Often, growers produce vegetables as well as flowers at different times of year. Growing flowers is an important international agricultural business. Growing flowers has much in common with growing a crop like strawberries since both are highly perishable and must be properly stored and shipped.

You can often save money and get better flowers by buying directly from the grower.
