Xmas Decor Goes Fast for Most Florists

Winter holiday decorations will be down by the end of this week for all but a spare 1% of retail florists.  Based on responses to last week's E-poll, most shops (65.33%) are likely to be pulling down their holiday decor this week, but they're behind the 29.33% who responded that they take down decorations the week after Christmas. A super-speedy 4% say their decor changes on December 26.  And that last 1.33%? They do "Christmas in April."
