Survey Says: Fresh Flowers for APW

Fresh cut flowers win over green and flowering plants for Administrative Professionals Week (APW) Week, according to the results of last year's post-holiday survey of retail florists. Eight of 10 orders for the holiday (80 percent) were cut flowers, with the remaining 20 percent evenly split between green and flowering plants.

 Preferred Types of Plants and Flowers for APW/PSW

 

Source: SAF Post-holiday online survey of retail florists. Based on 307 responses (9 percent response rate). Data rounded to sum of 100 percent.
