ALEXANDRIA, VA — As we head into the holiday season and you begin hiring seasonal workers, be ready to answer any care and handling question they lob your way. Educate yourself with the Society of American Florists’ (SAF's) Flower & Plant Care Manual, and keep a copy on hand so employees can refer back to it if you’re not available to answer questions.
Available in print and CD-Rom, the Flower & Plant Care Manual is the industry’s “must-have” resource for the final word on care and handling of fresh products. Inside, you’ll find complete guidelines for cut flowers, potted plants, bedding plants and foliage plants, information on processing flowers, temperature management and ethylene. The printed manual is also available in Spanish.
Order a copy today from safnow.org/products or call SAF at 800-336-4743, ext. 204.
