Talk:Floral industry

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a terribly written article, which gives undue influence to Holland and in no place mentions that for example, in the U.S., only a tiny fraction of flowers come from Holland and most come from Colombia and Ecuador.

[edit] Asian connection

From the article, paragraph 1: Floriculture as an industry began in the late 1800s in England, where flowers were grown on a large scale on the vast estates. This is hardly likely, I think someone who knew about floriculture in China, Japan or Thailand might be able to predate the 1800s. --Mr Accountable (talk) 06:54, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
