    Great page. Have you read "Flower Confidential"? Its a great book that discusses many of these issues.

    P.S. I found an organic flower seller on Amazon at http://tinyurl.com/8fcnnv. I would have loved to have found it in your lens first and clicked through. May I suggest you add a few items from their vast collection? They have several lovely winter bouquets available right now that might be cheerful for folks experiencing a letdown after the holidays. Btw, I don't know any of those folks personally and am not affiliated with them in any way, in case you're wondering.

    I found this page because I'm about to order organic flowers and hoped to give a Squidooer a clickout boost at the same time. I am grateful for your work on this lens. The story of the flower industry workers in Colombia needs to be told again and again until all of us ask before buying our flowers. How sad that something we use to give and send joy, to celebrate, or to lift spirits should come from such suffering.

    I rarely buy flowers but if I do I make sure it is from the farmers market. Thank you for raising awareness of the issue.
