Whatever, be it Christmas day or Valentine day or any social or religious festive, flowers are the ultimate choice for both sender and receiver. Flowers are not confined as a things of gift, now they retain a great contribution in economic sector. Statistics show that  the total size of the world flower market (flowers and potted plants) was estimated at US$40 billion in 1995 based on sales to end consumers. About 75 per cent of this consists of local production and sales, the rest being flowers that pass through international trade. The auctions in the Netherlands handled 60-70 per cent of the total world flower production, 15 per cent of this being imports. Thus Netherlands creates huge employment opportunity for her citizen in more environmental safest way.
