The "flush" continues

We had a record pick again this last Saturday breaking all records since we started the business. Quite amazing really. When we walk into the hot houses there is a sea of blooms before us - it is quite breathtaking. We do have a few "seconds" - those flowers not quite good enough for the market but suitable for putting in a vase at home.

As it turns out the southern states are still much colder, so we are able to sell most of ours here in the local market which is good, especially as the cold room is now full - and we pick again in the morning.

Fortunately there are some big deliveries to be done in the morning as well! I will not be picking very much tomorrow as I have a function to attend from 8 am, but I will rise early, and go dressed in my business attire, to pick.
