Romancing with Roses (Part 2) By, Charlie Farricielli from Rose Farm Buy Farm Fresh Grower Direct
Roses have been my life! I have lived on the farms in Venezuela, Ecuador, Guatemala, and Costa Rica. I have resided and labored along side the farm workers, helping them with their everyday under-paid chores as they cultivated the most beautiful “gift of God” on the planet!
An aroma created only in Heaven, stunningly filled the crisp mountain air each morning in the stunning peak surrounded town of Valencia. Ah! Valencia is a sheltered suburb of Venezuela overflowing with miles and miles of orange groves and rose farms. A profound region with the savor of sweet scented and fragrant like aromatic sensations that bestowed one with such profound internal emotions of well being!
The Rose Farm spectacularly displayed row after glorious row of rose shrubbery brimming with color and embellishment of each vibrant living plant. I still remember every detail of those wonderful educational and inspiring days.
Roses are my passion, my love my life. I wanted to learn and explore their growing habits, the hybridizing methods, the growing environment, and most important to discover the travel desires from farm to consumer!
Returning home to America after months of travel and exploration was going to be a profound expieriance for me. I would get to enjoy the reaction from customers while executing this retail and wholesale marketing system and anticipate the delighted response from patrons that my collections are best products I could unearth for our unsuspecting trade consumers.
My plan was to have our customers value the best roses at the best price! Once again, I would selfishly enjoy their delighted reactions to my thrilling discoveries. I loved the feeling of “blowing a customers mind”! Fresh roses last so long, also emulate considerably more aroma, are crisper and more vibrant in color.
My inspiration worked! I sold the beautiful roses for $9.95 a dozen. With in months the word had spread! Customers would travel miles to get the quality and lower priced roses. At that time in 1982 the florists were getting a” rip-off” price of $70.00- $100.00 per dozen!
Needless to say the local florists were pretty irritated at our marketing plan. Marketing plan? No. I simply sought to show the people of our area who never could afford to buy roses currently could now effortlessly purchase fresh cut long lasting, long stemmed roses every week. They could now afford to show their love to those around them. I also educated our customers and allowed them to comprehend they had been swindled too long by local and national florists!
The days were wonderful when lines of people gathered at Valentines Day, Mothers Day, everyday now became a rose holiday!
Senator Lieberman when at home in CT. would become a frequent customer and purchase a dozen for his beautiful wife Hadassah! I always used to tell him “Senator you will be president some day”! He laughed!
So let’s talk about another romancing idea.
A great way to give roses is to the woman in your life is to “send them to the office or work place”!
Why?
Well, when a girl receives roses at work, the romantic magic of the roses will now spread through the office like wildfire! Every one will want to know “who the flowers are from”.
Everyone will gather around the recipient and wish they had someone as thoughtful as her sender. The employees’ will want to know what the occasion is. Her friends will have feeling of happiness for her. She will be made so proud in front of the people she spends a lot of her life with.
You see roses are magical.
You made her day magic! For that moment she will feel like Cinderella! They will change the entire day of the recipient. She will now have a reminder of YOU the loving thoughtful provider. You! Emotions will magnify because of this simple yet spectacular way to send roses! She will also get remarks from fellow employees how thoughtful you are. You have sent your feelings in a dramatic way!
One more way to amplify this idea is to send the roses on a Monday or Tuesday the beginning of the work week. This will give her the choice to either leave them there or take them home!
I have experienced so many wonderful years of believing in the magic of roses. Please try this magical recipe of love and you will be so surprised of how romancing with roses changes lives.
