Colombia is confront remarkably strong , and non - stop pelting , a type of weather growers are n’t swell on and in particular not in the ladder - up to a vacation . In this guinea pig , Mother ’s Day , which is celebrated in many countries on May 8 . luckily , yield was primarily on time , but stick these flowers to the client was , and still is , the next challenge , Pablo Bazzani of Plazoleta excuse . He maturate several summertime and focal flower on around 30 ha in Bogota and ships them all over the world . Mother ’s Day is their most authoritative holiday , and despite the challenge , he is quite affirmative about this year ’s results . " The flowers attain fairly reasonable toll equate to pre - pandemic holiday . "

Challenges"There are always plenty of challenges in this concern , and most of the time , they all get together to make it even more entertaining " , Bazzani chortle . The airfreight state of affairs is a much - discussed theme , and it still does n’t seem to be improving . " There is a lack of aircraft available for the holiday . The basal challenge now for the growers is to get their flowers to their final address . " accord to Bazzani , there is not just one reason that is cause the deficiency of aircrafts . " Many other industry and countries , as Ukraine ’s freighter demand is right smart higher , are willing to pay for more expensive freights . On top of that , there are also mechanical hurt on aircrafts that were suppose to take loading off the country , and so on . As a result , most farms have been and are still begging to get hold out how to take their flowers to their customers . "
How to deal with it?“Straight forward , there ’s not much we can do other than require our customers to understand the situation , and then they attempt to stretch the rescue timing as much as possible with their final customers . It makes all preparation very difficult since we do n’t want to take the flower out of our coolers if we are unsure they will entrance up with the needed room . However , there is still some uncertainty about the booking even with the flowers at the airport . "
ImportantholidayFor Plazoleta , Mother ’s Day is more important than Valentine’s - Day , explain Bazzani . " Mother ’s daylight is ordinarily a beautiful vacation for those who grow mintage other than rose . Mother ’s daytime brings a more democratic demand in terms of diversity and colours so that farm can sell their whole motley . And the fact that this vacation is celebrate almost everywhere globally gain it an even more interesting holiday . Even though roses are still in significant demand for this holiday , other species such as Alstroemerias , Sunflowers , Statice , Limonium , etc . - all blossom we grow- take a more relevant share in the market ’s needs and the choices of retailer . "
Reasonable pricesAccording to Bazzani , the bloom cost have been pretty reasonable compared to pre - pandemic holiday . And the fact that the period between Easter and Mother ’s Day is shorter than common helped the prices get hold of these point . " This year ’s Easter vacation was comparatively tight to Mother ’s Day , which get fewer offer useable for the pixilated load frame , which is one week less than common . as luck would have it , despite the laborious rains , the production was primarily on time , leave in the need meeting the offer . "
Tighter summerOnce Mother ’s day goes by , Bazzani is afraid this summer will be tighter than last class . " The world-wide post , in general , makes us think we will get back to the usual wry summers when people favor to do other activity that do n’t let in peak in many ways . Also , the economical situation in Europe and Russia ’s financial restriction will regard farms like Plazoleta , which still have an essential market share in these regions . However , in the meantime , we will concentrate on accept care of our committed unconstipated customer while we reset our plants to attain higher quality and productiveness from September on . This way , we will come up only with our everyday order needs trying to protect the market price for our brands and bloom . "
