Japanese Flowers 01/30/2011
 
I recently had the pleasure of attending the Japan Bloom Fair in NYC. 
There were about 200 varieties of the most exquisite flowers I've ever seen.
Imagine - Ranunculus, Sweet Peas, Lisianthus, Garden Roses, Scabiosa, Orchids........  All in one room, the smell was divine!

I love my suppliers and they have very fresh, quality flowers. But the quality and SIZE of the Japanese flowers was insane.

Take a look at the difference.

Below is a very nice purple Lisianthus from California -

Very pretty right?

Well here is the Japanese Lisianthus -

Um, How fab????????????

Now one more example with a pretty delicate pink Ranunculus. These are one of my favorite flowers. These beauties are from Israel.

Ok, now miss Japan Ranuncula.

WOW, right?!?!?
I couldn't stop looking at these. And all of the colors they had there, oh my, it stopped my heart!

Now you ask, is there a price difference? Yes, of course there is, but you get what you pay for. And you GET these!

The Japanese flower market is still small in Philadelphia, there aren't as many varieties of flowers available as in other cities, like New York. But New York is a short trip away for those of you who would so love to have these beauties! Well it would be a short trip for me, I do the buying. :)

Seriously, though, these flowers are very incredible. I was actually on the verge of tears seeing some of the unique blossoms they had at the Japan Bloom Expo. The quality was exceptional, the color range incredible, there was nothing to not love about these flowers.
Take a look at my Facebook page and see all of the pictures I took that day!

Enjoy!
