Flower seasonal supply calendar
This calendar covers roses, eustoma, gypsophila, and carnations. Orders ship from Dounan Flower Market in Kunming. October to February is the peak for weddings and export.

Peak, frost, and rain
October to February is the peak season for weddings and export.
Frost makes top-grade flowers scarce. A long rain does the same: fewer top-grade stems. In those weeks we buy what is actually in cut.
Holidays
For Valentine’s Day, volumes are agreed in advance and the quote is issued on the day. On an ordinary day a quote is valid for four days. On a holiday it is issued that day.
Chinese Valentine’s Day (Qixi) lifts demand before the festival and demand settles after it. Halloween and Vietnam Women’s Day raise demand because buyers stock ahead. Place those volumes early.
In the week before Mother’s Day, a quote is valid for 3 days.
White and yellow roses in June and July
In the June–July rains, white and yellow roses show more petal marks and fewer top-grade stems. We buy them to the weather of that week.
Autumn and winter
Julietta spray roses are available in autumn and winter.
