This cut flower guide offers just a sampling of the many varieties of flowers grown in the Salinas Valley and other parts of California. The flowers are listed by scientific name, please see our cross reference page to find a flower via the common name.

The flower industry has changed dramatically over the years mostly in the source of most of the flowers (South America). Most South American flowers were cut and shipped many days in advance of actually being delivered to the florist. South American countries do not have the same pesticide restrictions that the United States has in place. We all suffer economically by purchasing flowers dumped in the U.S. by these foreign flower growers.

Because of the strict pesticide regulations in California we buy a large portion of our flowers from local Salinas Valley flower growers and other California growers. We think that selling reduced pesticide treated flowers is the responsible path to take for our customers, our employees and the earth.
