Flowers for Sale: Growing and Marketing Cut Flowers: Backyard to Small Acreage (A Bootstrap Guide)

By on February 29, 2004 in Books


Amazon: “This title of this book does not accurately reflect the content. It is extremely vague, completely lacking in any technical detail regarding crop production, expected yield per acerage used, costs involved, marketing/selling etc. I can sum this book up in one sentence “I grew some flowers and sold them in my local shop and I dont know how or why I was successful at this practice.” This really is a worthless book…the author has a very homely style which reinforces the impression that she is a complete amateur at this business. She runs out of anything useful to say after a couple of chapters and sets off to tell the life-story of her flower-growing acquaintances without paying much notice to the technical and scientific detail of their various ventures. If you are hoping to get some serious insights into growing flowers and developing marketing strategies for selling those flowers, forget it….do not buy this book.”
