Colombia's blooming bounty of flowers
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 май 2024
- The optimal soil and climate of Colombia's flower-growing regions have made that South American country the world's "flower basket." In fact, 75% of cut flowers imported into the United States are from Colombia. Correspondent Lilia Luciano visits a family farm high atop the mountains outside of Medellin, where four generations have been working the fields; and attends the annual Festival of the Flowers (Feria de las Flores) to celebrate the beauty and bounty of their blooms.

I did not know about the colorful Colombian flowers. I did not know that Colombian flowers are sold all over the world. This is a great report that changes my perception of Colombia entirely.
I'm fortunate and proud to call Colombia, and this area in particular

Absolute heaven! Send Aldolfo my regards!!!
Would love to see a piece about local American grown flowers!!!! Supporting American jobs, a smaller carbon footprint and resurgence of economic opportunity in rural america are all benefits of local production of flowers. As an american flower farm, we are actively trying to grow the American grown movement to bring more of the flower trade back to the states. The majority of flowers sold in the U.S. should NOT be grown outside of our country!
Would love to see a piece on American flower farmers. We need to support our local growers!
While I love that specialty crops are getting more attention, I would love to see you cover the booming American-Grown Flower movement. It is a truly beautiful thing.
Informative thank you for the information and history. The flowers just add to the enjoyment.
Can’t go wrong with flowers 💜💕💜
Wow.🌿🌺💗🌺🌿
THAT'S ALL THAT YOU SEE ON THE WAY INTO BOGOTA. THEY GROW WAY MORE THAN THE COCA PLANT!...... ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL WHEN YOU SEE IT!
❤🇨🇴🌼🌞🥰
This is way better than the Rose Parade
Apple and oranges. The Rose Parade isn’t centered on just roses-more of a celebration of the city.
Producers of flowers in the world:
Netherlands: US$4.8 billion (54.5% of exported flower bouquets)
Ecuador: $1 billion (11.7%)
Kenya: $628.6 million (7.2%)
Colombia: $490.5 million (5.6%)
Ethiopia: $229.5 million (2.6%)
Whole Foods beats down the seller on "volume order" then beats down the buyer with a cute sign and extremely overcharging.
Lesson: Buy seeds and grow your own flowers.
Beats Colombia's other big export 😊
The export that you consume? 🤭
Very good decision friends, oh yezzzzzz, let's start blooming...from the own ashes, Mother Earth's reminding us each Spring, life must go on above any death big factory of mass murders, let's enjoy life like a true Holy Blessing as we should 😢😢😢
Do the cartel's own this too?
As long as Americans are hooked to it.... 😂

How about we promote LOCAL AMERICAN GROWN FLOWERS and the truth behind allllll the chemicals and labor issues not to mention carbon footprint of imported flowers!!!! Clearly you need to do a new piece!!!!!
I'm still really disappointed that you decided to promote that charlatan "psychic" in a different piece.
🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂
“Flowers” definitely “not” poppies
