Unique challenges have been presented due to the current supply chain problem. As a result, it has also affected the Flower industry as it has most industries. Penny’s By Plaza Flowers provides outstanding service and beautiful products to customers. Our team is focused on staying ahead of supply issues. Subsequently, Penny’s By Plaza Flowers makes Early Ordering this Valentine’s Day very convenient and easy. As we are getting closer to Valentine’s Day, please place orders well in advance.

Early Valentine’s Flower Ordering

Due to the pandemic, there were fewer than normal plantings at flower farms. The need to quarantine made some farm owners shut down. In some cases, they had to shut down their farms completely. An estimated 247,717 floral worker jobs were lost between 2019 and 2020.
South America is one of the top countries for flower production. The growing conditions have historically been very good on that continent. However, recent weather pattern changes have caused colder nights and more rain than is required. Therefore, the health of flower plants has been negatively affected. Similarly, U.S. Flower Farms have suffered as well. For example, California is a top flower producer. Drought, wildfire and the unpredicted flooding has caused much damage to flower crops.
Interestingly, Weddings are going through a boom period. According to reports there were 1.3 million weddings in 2020. Then in 2021 that grew to 1.93 million. It is predicted that there could be 2.47 million in 2022. Of course, this will most likely normalize once the back log of delayed weddings is addressed. For this reason, it is easy to see what a strain this has placed on flower shoppes.
