Tulip season is coming up soon, but the bulb harvest was poor, very poor. How will this affect the upcoming season? Will there be enough quantities? what about the quality of the bulbs? How will it affect the prices (in presale)

In this first episode of London's Calling Caroline and John discuss the IFTF and Flora Holland Tradefair which were held last week. What were the highlights, and how was the overall atmosphere? But before we go into that, we go from the Eurovision to the current prices at the Dutch auction.

Enjoy the podcast and let us know if you like this format!

120 episodes with great guests from all over the world.

From China to Colombia, and from Australia to South Africa.

In almost 2,5 years' time, we talked with so many inspiring people. What started out as a way to share ideas and knowledge to try to overcome the pandemic, became a show where inspiring people told their stories, passion, and goals.

It was great to see the reactions of all the people watching and listening. We even inspired a lot of people to start their own talks as well.

Now that times have changed, and that we have inspired people to start to do the same, it is time to start with Flower Circus Talks 2.0

We will be back from June with a new and exciting format that fits the time we are in now, busy doing what we love most: working with flowers!

Thank you all for watching!

In this episode of Flower Circus Talks we have two icons from the flower industry: Holly Chapple and Joey Azout. Together they created someting really wonderful: the Alexandra Farms Certified Designer course (AFCD).  

What started out as an idea between the two soon grew out to a full scale course specially for garden roses. During the 12 chapters of the course you will not learn how to design with garden roses, you will also learn all the varieties, care and handling, and much more!  

Next to that you will also become a part of the community, and there are much more benefits which Holly and Joey will tell you about during this episode of Flower Circus Talks.

In this Talks we have the floral entrepreneur Khrystyna Didukh.  She is a woman full of energy and ideas, and is running several projects in Lviv in Ukraine; from flowerwholesale to flowershop and weddings.  

Like for all Ukrainians from the 24th of February her world turned upside down. Just having bought a huge amount of flowers for Woman's Day the day before, she soon realized that she couldn't sell it.  Within no time she started a new project: flowerforukraine.com. 

She explains all about it during this talks, and of course also tells us what is going on in Ukraine

International Women's Day is around the corner. A day that is celebrated in Russia and Eastern Europe with a lot of flowers. We talk about the huge flowerday with Naila and Moses from MM Flor. MM Flor is specialised in selling flowers and plants to Russia and Eastern Europe.   

We speak about what this day means for the people, and that giving flowers is a must. Not only to your direct family, also to female collegues etc. Not giving flowers will be remembered for a long long time!!!   

The high prices are also one of the topics, although Moses sees that it isn't influencing the business as much as he though on forehand. Customers are buying flowers anyway, because without flowers they don't have a business. And with Womensday being good for 25-30% the turnover for most flowershops, they can't skip this day.

We are in the middle of all big flower holidays, Valentine sales are done for the export, and Women's Day is already around the corner. Time to talk with Kjell Duijvesteijn, the co-owner of Flower Force. A Dutch export company which exports to over 40 counties worldwide.  

Kjell will tell us about the challenges this Valentines, and we look forward towards the upcoming holidays.

Our Flower Circus Talks are about promotion of unique flower companies and services, top quality growers, and innovators of the industry. This time we will have an insightful conversation with Jurjen Ilsink from The World of Spray roses.

Don’t miss the Talk full of inspiration, ideas, experience, knowledge, and, of course, passion for spray roses!
