Last week, the Senate passed a bipartisan resolution introduced by Senators Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), Kamala D. Harris (D-Calif.) and Dan Sullivan (R-Alaska) designating July as “American Grown Flower Month†and encouraging consumers to buy “Certified American Grown†flowers. American consumers spend $27 billion on floral products each year. While the majority of Americans would prefer to buy locally grown flowers, only 20% of the flowers sold in the United States are grown domestically.
